Re: AICS Hand stop Picatinny Rail
I just went back to to the AICS, again, and was asking the same question.
I found a Magpul 7 slot polymer rail for about 10 bucks, pulled a KAC flush cup mount off of a carbine rail and put them under the AICS. It works great. I have been snapping in every night this week and have not had any issues under sling tension. I also placed the KAC mount very close to the bipod so the sling swivel can not make a full rotation and twist up the sling.

Accu-shot (of atlas bipod fame) makes a rail that fits the AI forend, then you could use a KAC handstop on it (the kind that is most often seen on the URX rails)

that's not the KAC I had in mind, they have an actual handstop as well... that's just a QD swivel socket in the pic.

Bringing back an old post. I'm surprised to see people moving the sling mounts to the bottom. When I shoot sling-assisted, I currently use the stock clip-in sling mounts. Although I've never tried it, it seems to me that if I used a sling mount on the bottom, it would put a torque on the rifle that makes the rifle want to twist clockwise (for a right handed shooter). Does this happen? Maybe it's a GOOD thing?
