What's the best way to modify an AT kit post-build for rail buttons?
My first inkling was to use well nuts /rawl nuts, but I'm thinking the expansion idea won't work well on glorified paper towel rolls.
I've seen images here of people putting rail buttons right into the plastic launch lugs which seems like workable approach. Drill a small pilot hole and use a self-tapping screw to affix the button to the lug? Put an actual nut inside the lug? Tap a thread into the actual lug?
Any other approaches? Links?
