The front stud on my wood M70 is not fixed, and moves around with the sling in place.

I was thinking of epoxying it in place, but thought I would check with you guy's first. Should I use epoxy or wood glue? Thanks

| The front swivel stud should not move. If it is the wood screw type stud, toss it and install the machined stud with the backing nut. |

| To quote my gunsmith: "If it moves, it's trouble." I advise several gallons of judiciously-placed JB Weld. That'll fix that bugger. |
