Im posting from a cell phone so I will add details later but the pictures pretty well cover it. Wanted to share in case others are interested. It ended up rock solid plus its removeable. I JB Welded the threaded inserts in place and obviously cut the bolts to sit flush. This is a Rem 870 rail and the concave back mated perfectly with the GI stock forend.

The Weaver mount certainly is less expensive than the swivel/bipod base replacement that is sold, and installation certainly isn't beyond most here on the site. With a little extra effort...it should go easily on a wooden stock as well. You did a very nice job.

Really nice. Sure has got me to thinking about doing the same thing on one of my stocks. Have a few rails laying around from different projects and one of them is just begging to be used.

Where did you get the threaded inserts though?
Ace Hardware. That is where I picked up the longer allen bolts as well.
