I noticed this hole in the stock that appears to be made for a QD socket, however I can’t find anything specific about adding one. If anyone knows which (if any) QD mount will fit even if modification is necessary I’d appreciate some advice.

Your call as to whether this is a “bubba attempt” or what.

I'm curious how that QD socket was installed. From what I can see in the pics, it doesn't appear that it was installed in the conventional manor. I could be wrong, but that's just how it looks to me. I'm not criticizing, just curious how it was done.

In the past I have used threaded GrovTech QD Sling Bases. Just drill, thread and screw them in. I also used Gorilla Glue just to be thorough. I don't know if these would work well with that stock or not, but they work perfectly for Magpul stocks, cost less and seat flush.

I looked at doing just that

Simply not enough stock material for a screw in insert like the one you linked. The sidewalls of the socket are very thin. I installed with hardware shown. I then filled the off side with devcon. 
 

I believe I did this two and a half years ago……no issues to date
