Stupid, stupid question about holes.

As many of you are aware, KE Arms has come out with a new polymer AR15 lower receiver as part of the "WWSD" (What would stoner do) project started on Inrange on YouTube.

I like the idea, and considering buying one from Brownells, but one little thing bugs the hell out of me.

There are two round holes in the buttstock for attaching QD sling swivels. I'm not going to add a sling, and I want to cover up the holes.

Considered and rejected filling with Bondo. :o

Is there some kind of blank QD attachment that I can use to cover up those holes?

Your input, in all forms, whimsical to weird, are appreciated.

If it's just about not liking the sight of the holes, you could insert some kind of QD sling stud or something else.

If you want something a little more contoured, you could try a My Little Pony or unicorn sticker. :lol:

Will it annoy you less than the holes?

Damn good question, that. Something to ponder.

Maybe, if it is truly monolithic.

If it is two pieces “sonic welded” together, I don’t know about that.

Well they beat the hell out of it, and ran it over with a truck, and shot the snot out of it in full auto, if that means anything.

But it doesn't take Glock mags.

It is welded, though.

I think.

Everything they did with the previous CA lowers, and their rep wasn’t the greatest.

Put your money where you choose, but it’s a crapshoot with poly AR lowers.
