Gunsmithing McM stock retrofit question

[BasraBoy]

Is it possible/easy to retrofit a front end Picatinny rail (Seekins or similar) to a McM stock that has QD studs or Flush cups fitted?

Would doing so screw up any bedding in the stock?

Thanks in advance for your advice.

no it wont. Here is what i did, bought a pic rail removed the sling stug then put the pic rail where i wanted it and drilled two pilot holes for the screws about 1/8 inch deep. Then put some wood glue on the screw threads and screwed them in. Havent had any problems out of it at all. It wont screw anything up

depending on where your flush cup is, i had to cut my rail down a little bit to still utilize the flush cup. Used a dremel cutting wheel then flatten it out, hit it with some flat black krylon

Thanks but I'd probably entrust it to my smith as my skill levels may not be up to the job and I'd hate to fu*k up a perfectly good stock in the process....
