I recently picked up a 10/22 s/s synthetic stock, noticed the butt plate can be pried off w/some gentle coaxing. Anyone (ruger) ever think of puuting a trap or hinge on this for storage?

I saw this post over at Rimfire Central on installing Sling Studs on that type of Hollow Factory Stock..

I would imagine that with the propper type of hinge + latch & Epoxy anything is possible, As you can see from the pics in that thread I linked you too, There's alot of room in there for a AR-15 Cleaning Kit, Weights etc..
My factory Synthetic Stock was made Earlier & it"s Solid & haven't ever thought of trying to remove the butt pad on it.. Might be solid ?? Don't want to ruin it..
Good Luck with any "MODS" You try an undertake

BTW WELCOME TO THE FORUM YANK

I've got a Savage M93 with a hollow synthetic stock. I don't use it for storage but I did glue some weights in there just because the gun was barrel heavy, at least to me.
