Thanks for the help folks. I've sourced a euro style sling swivel. Appreciate it.

Hoping someone can help me out. I've got a 1914 Holland & Holland 375 H&H. It came with two sling attach points (back bottom of stock and barrel band) but no sling. I purchased a sling and Uncle Mikes Quick Release Sling Swivels. Fit perfect through the attach point on the stock. On the barrel...
