I went to go install the Ratworx one-point sling mount on my gun but, when I tried to remove one of the sling cups I had screwed down a few months ago, one of the threaded inserts broke loose from the mounting and is now spinning free inside the stock. Has anyone had success fixing this issue?

Superglue.

Just glob some in from the inside of the stock? I can't access the insert from the top since the sling cup is still screwed into it.

It hard to picture what you have to work with. Obviously, if you can't get to it, it won't help. Can you see into the stock to where the insert is located? If so, maybe you can put some presure on the side of it with a screwdriver or something to hold it. Pulling on it while you turn it may also be the answer. Anyway, good luck!

I sent mine back to the factory when that happened to me.
