Tapcop stock question
« on: July 12, 2014, 12:45:53 AM »
On the T6 collapsible stock, can you use a single sling adapter (such as one for AR-15)?   It would really be nice to mount a single point sling.

Nowhere to install it on the SKS Tapco stock, the tube slides into the rear of the stock then has two bolts go through the entire thing to hold it in place, and they're recessed into the stock. You could possibly make one that goes under the pistol grip and angled up alongside the side of the stock for one, I'll have to check into it.

I saw a guy on youtube that drilled into the top back of the pistol grip and installed an attach point there. IMHO the SKS may be too front heavy to make a single point sling effective and comfortable. Have you thought of a 3 point sling? You wouldn't have to add or modify anything to make it works as it would attach to the existing attachment points. It should accomplish the same goal as the single point, but be more compatible with this platform.

VermontCNC makes a 1 point sling adapter that replaces one of the mounting screws for the butt stock tube. Go to his vender  sub-section and check it out.
