I have a Steyr Prohunter and I am curous if the factory sling mounts can be removed/unscrewed without damaging the stock? I would like to replace them with the detachable type.

The sling mounts can be removed by pushing it in and turning it either left or right. I do not know how easy it is to remove the flush base mount that is embedded in the stock. I believe it is just screwed into the stock, but not sure if it is also glued or bedded.
New sling mounts can be ordered from Milletts.
