Ruger american ranch (bolt action) in 7.62x39. it has standard sling swivels at bottom of stock. fine for slinging over shoulder although I am so accustomed to a 1- or 2-point AR/AK type sling with the rifle positioned across my chest / muzzle pointing down to left. I'm looking for a method to attach a similar "tactical" 2 point sling, essentially to sling rifle in front. I've dug around various forums and cannot find a solution.
I'm not looking for advice on AR or AK slings. This is a bolt action and will need some other solution than a typical AR/AK sling method which are easy to setup. The issue here is not the sling itself but rather attachment method. I don't mind drilling into the stock if it will provide a solution. Worst case scenario i get a replacement stock from Ruger. This rifle uses mini-30 mags so is not compatible with aftermarket AICS pattern stocks such as the magpul hunter or MDT chassis.
This is the rifle
I'm running a RDS towards the front of the pic rail, so I've got plenty of room there to attach a pic-QD or equivalent, which could provide a single attachment point.
Thanks in advance
