What an absolute ridicules place to put them, mainly the one smack bang in the middle of the rifle, went out yesterday evening after an injured roe buck, now i know its not a stalking rifle, but still, if your putting flush cups on then they need to be in a suitable place, put it over my shoulder and all it did was swing backwards, muzzle/moderator 4" from the floor, kept trapping my arm trying to swing it back into place, twazing myself in the head with it, couldnt put it over my head as it just did the same and ended up horizontal across my back, i could hold it in place but with sticks and binos in used it all just went very wrong, lasted 20 mins and went home, love to know the reason for the location, M-Lok QD adaptor ordered, IMG_9109.webp

Yeah, a lot of these chassis are military/tactical oriented, so the rifle is expected to be carried muzzle down when slung.

If it's any consolation, my AI AT-X rifle doesn't have a forward QD point either (which is annoying on a $6k+ rifle).
