For those who want to use a normal ring (Be it weaver or dovetail) and want to turn it into a quick release rather than spend money in a whole new QD ring (there are some that tight, I used to be which is how I figured this wee trick out)
Get the bolt thread size from the ring clamp and replace it with a much longer bolt that has a wing nut wound on backwards. Then simply locktite the bolt in place and use the wing nut to tighten the clamp and release it when you want. Head of the bolt keeps the wing nut from being lost. I am looking for the pitures of the one I had but cannt fint them.
