Ok so I dug around my stuff and found a machine thread sling stud to go on my smooth tube AR. I'm not going to go into the drilling in this post because there is a great video on YouTube. I decided to do some washers and Loctite a nut on the backside of the tube. These tubes just dont seem to be that thick, even with fine threads.
So I took the stud with me to Ace to get some nuts and washers and I am glad I did. This one turned out to be a M5 thread. Would never have made that call. So just a warning, there are metric sling studs out there and they look pretty close to the American threading system.
It turned out great.
