I just received a canvas GI style sling directly from Appleseed's online store. I'd like to put it on either my Savage Mark II or my Marlin XT-22, but there doesn't seem to be a way to connect it to the small, roughly pea-sized sling studs.
Is there some sort of adapter I need to buy?
 
Inch and a quarter I believe. I have a GI sling on my 10/22 Liberty Rifle. Don't forget the tech sights.
 
I've got no idea why Easy linked you that part. That's probably the part you already have on the GI sling.

Just get a couple of standard sling loops for normal sling studs and thread the sling through your new loops instead of the old attachment hardware (keeping the obvious bits).

I like these: Talon Sling Loops, but not for any particularly good reason.

For extra credit, you can drill and epoxy in a couple of grovtec flush cups and use QD sling loops instead.
 
Tech sights sells a 1" version of the GI web sling. 1" swivels are more common on commercial rifles and slings. Just another option.
 
The advice here led me to the correct QD mounts and slings. I'm ready now for the upcoming Appleseed I'm attending...
