Adding a sling to my coach gun

[hessian_]

I have a Stoeger Coach supreme. I'd like to add a nice leather sling to it but I want to avoid drilling in tapping to add a swivel.

Here's what my current thinking is:

The forend has a factory screw that's beside the locking lever:

I'm going to see if I can find a sling swivel bolt with the same thread pattern that would fit without damage.

As for the stock, has anyone seen any kind of leather stock shell holder that has a built in sling swivel? If so, would it even be strong enough? Better ideas, am I going about this the wrong way?

Kind of like this for the stock:

We have two of these coachguns by stoeger. Buy a good quality over-the-shoulder sleeve. They make reasonably priced ones as well as super fine leather works of art. But they work really slick with a stoeger. Really slick piece of kit!

I like the look of the one you posted, you might have to get something custom made for the leather buttstock piece. Looks nice on that lever gun, should look nice on your SxS too.
