If your 2600 rb had come with the U shaped dinette, the bases and backs would have been screwed to the walls and the removable table would have been screwed into the slide flooring.
 
The table just sits in it's spot and is held down with a strap. The seated aren't a total u shape the inside seat is a removable ottoman.

Understood, the point was “if” your unit had the optional Galley dinette GD would have used the aluminum and or wood wall studs for securing.
The wall studs can be located on each side of the windows and maybe one in between or viewing from the outside you may even be able to see the surface contact between the stud and outside skin. Maybe one of those stud finder’s would work, I never tried it.
The floor is 3/4 flooring material and is well suited for floor mounted dinette mounting.

To find stud locations.
If you view the external sides of you rv early in the morning you will find outlines on the walls where the studs are touching the outside wall.
