I was idly pondering what I can do with the empty space inside the bolt-channel of my Marlin 30-30, and was thinking that some emergency gear might be appropriate.
Maybe hank of fishline, couple hooks, Sunto watch-compass (beloved of Marines) etc. Maybe a plastic emergency whistle?
Then I thought that maybe a very small (1.5"-2") fixed-blade knife might be useful. I thought fixed so as to have no moving parts. Something small to fit, and light to not throw off the balance. Any suggestions?
And of course, the obvious question: how to I set up the buttstock so that I don't need a screwdriver to get into it? Or do I just make sure that one screw is a flathead, and look for a sharp rock to turn it in an emergency?
