I've been pondering over this for a while trying to think of a way to do it and have not come up with a very easy solution. Lots of newer guns have synthetic stocks that are hollow and it seems like that is a whole lot of wasted space that could be used for storage of random stuff. The gun they got me thinking about it is a Ruger american. It sure seems like you could stuff another mag or two in there and some other supplies of your choosing and always have backups if you wanted to use that as a go-to-type gun. The problem is the screws are a pain in the ass to get out to get the butt pad off, it's not very quick, and it requires tools. I am not talking about access like a tactical reload type deal, but definitely something quicker than what it would currently take to do. So who's got some ideas for me?
The best idea I have come up with so far is to counterbore the butt pad with some pretty good size holes and use knurled thumb screws that are recessed into the butt pad.
