- The Ruger 10/22 is one of the most popular rimfire rifles of all time, yet out of the box it is not highly accessorized. Here's how to add a set of sling swivels.
- The suggestion to use the barrel band, if the stock you have does indeed provide one, seems to me to be a better way to go at it. One thing that I've found when installing the Uncle Mike's swivel stud in the barrel band, is that some material on each side of the slot will need to be removed so the upper end of the swivel stud will fit in place.
My 10-22 Sling Kit, ( Uncle Mike's 1641-2) has a 'Barrel Band' connector. My 10-22 Takedown has a plastic barrel band. Inserting the connector BETWEEN the halves of the barrel band prevent it from being tightened down, and won't stay put. I had to enlarge the hole in the part provided, and attached it OUTSIDE the barrel band.

I just got 10/22 takedown and I would like to put a sling on it, and therefore a sling swivel set.
Does anyone have any recommendations on how to do this and what swivel sets to use?
Here is one set, for example http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/pid=40168/Product/SWIVEL-SETS
I saw a thread for making liberty training rifles, but all the links to parts from midwayusa were broken.
I found this video about installing sling swivels on the 10/22 TD http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rooCvJ6Bd_o
I guess the 10/22 TD buttstock is hollow, so the guy recommends using epoxy on the screw for the rear swivel mount.
He also suggests removing the barrel band, does anyone have insight on whether this a good/bad idea, or pointless? I can certainly see how less stuff touching the barrel would allow for greater accuracy, that is the whole idea behind having a floating barrel anyway, isn't it?
