I've been modifying a walnut GI stock for an M1A, and I decided to put some Uncle Mike's QD Sockets in the sides. When I measured the cups, they're either going to have to stick out of the stock, or I'll have to drill all the way through and have them stick into the barrel channel. They wouldn't make contact with the barrell or op-rod, but my concern is that they might pull-out or crack the stock under load. The epoxy I am using is Devcon Plastic Steel. I have some AcraGlas, but I'm saving it for the bedding.
Does anyone have any experience/advice/expertise they could throw my way? It would be appreciated.
Thanks!
