I am looking for something similar to the flush mount swivel studs and sling loops that Pachmayr and Millet used to sell that have been discontinued. Does anyone know of any thing currently manufactured that is a functional replacement ?

Do you have a rifle with the receptacles but are missing the swivel loops? I think my replacement loops came from New England Custom Guns, but I'm not sure. They are not a reliable fit in the receptacles in my rifles, but they can probably be made reliable with a little welding and filing. Correction: My insert and twist swivel loops came from Lyman Products, but they seem to be missing from their catalog. They cost $5.50 each a few years ago. I would call them and ask. Good luck.

Here is a currently manufactured substitute

Uncle Mike's

What is your situation? Is it the case that you have Pachmayr sling swivel bases currently mounted but no sling swivels? Or are you looking to put a set of flush mounted sling swivels and bases on a rifle without sling swivels?

Postoak, can you post a picture of the rifle you mean to install these on? Does the rifle have the receptacles?

The rifle has no swivel studs, and I always liked the projection-less type studs and swivels, not enough however to pay the eBay price.

Thanks for the tip on the Uncle Mikes studs, I have similar quick release swivels on a couple of ARs, I did not know that they were available for wood stocks.
