I'm hunting with a few all-original Winchesters - 1886, 1894.
None of them have ever been modified and I have zero desire to drill a hole in the stock for an Uncle Mike's stud. At the same time though, because they are long, heavy rifles, I'd like to have some kind of sling arrangement.
I saw online a few do-dads that looked like they'd work but I can't find the seller. It was kind of a lace-on "boot" that goes on the butt of the stock that has an Uncle Mike's stud integral with it so you can remove it whenever you want. I'm okay with the front part, as I'd just get one of those tube-magazine studs you can attach and remove as needed.
Does anyone have a recommendation for me? I really like the "brass stacker" one I saw, but they don't ship to Canada and don't make one for the 1886.
