Hi, Bagheera,<br><br>I see that others have posted a wealth of information about the Steyr Scout. I wasn’t aware that Biathlon rifles had spare magazines in the buttstock as well- I’ll have to try to find a picture on-line.<br><br>I wouldn’t be surprised or dismayed if you don’t hear from Butler Creek. Because of the ever-increasing litigious atmosphere in this country, and the fact that anyone can sue anyone, for anything, with almost no risk to themselves, many companies make a point of not even forwarding such suggestions to their design teams, for fear that if they do incorporate a suggestion, even if they have been working on it for years, the person offering the suggestion will then claim it as their “invention” and demand some form of payment. If the courts were consistent about such nonsense, no one would bother, but the courts here are not consistent about anything- so, with no downside, they figure it’s worth a chance.<br><br>Best wishes to you, and to Holland, so often in history a bastion of freedom.<br>
