Sling slots

**Mizzouboy** · 02-01-2015 12:00 PM

A bit slow in posting, and a bit OT, but I noticed in some videos from Paris during the Charlie Hebdo murders, that some of the French icon

Gendarmerie appeared to be carrying Ruger Mini-14's. Odd thing, though, they appeared to have M1 icon

carbine-style sling slots in the stocks! Anybody know if this is a factory mod, or something the French did, aftermarket? I bet if someone called up Ruger and said "I'd like to buy 1000 Mini-14's , they would put any sling you want on them...

"i'm the infidel your Imam warned you about."

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

There is already a older thread started about this. So as not to get multiple threads going on an off topic subject, lets put any continued posts there.
