Gunsmithing McMillan HTG / Wichita Sling Swivel Question

[khawk]

I have a McMillan HTG stock that's factory equipped with Wichita sling swivels. My question is, can I replace the Wichita's with regular sling studs?

A member on here "sdwhirlwind" made some a while back but I have not seen any lately.

You might can romove the loop from yours and modify the stud to work.

No it is different threading but as mentioned you can pop off one of the sling swived and then grind down the edges of the studs so it fits the Harris. I have done it for 3 stocks.
