Hello, tmlynch, I have been trying to think of alternative...don't think rubber eraser would offer enough cushion. How are you set for drills & taps? I was thinking of those nylon screws that better hardware stores carry. Might not even need tap or drill for that matter..a large rifle or pistol pocket is .210"- perhaps you could force a 1/4 screw in & cut off. For small pocket-.175 I believe a 10-32 screw..nom. dia. of .190 should work ok.
