Got a new Magpul ACS stock on my AR-15. When I put CR123 batteries in the storage area, they rattle around. Looking for a quick fix. Was thinking of shoving some cork from a wine bottle down there. but that will be a bummer if I want to remove it to store another type of battery...... Any other ideas (that are simpler) that you guys have done? Thanks for any advice you may have....

A thought, you can place Black Foam on the closing side of the battery compartment? That way you can easily remove it but still will provide pressure on the rattling batteries..?
-I think you can get some black window/ door foam strips at ACE Hardware, Home Depot or Lowes.Comment

foam or packing peanuts cut to the appropriate length/width so they are easy to remove will work.Comment

Go to the hardware store and find some appropriate size rubber tubing. Cut a piece as long or a bit longer than the battery and you've got a nice little sleeve for it. Won't break the bank, and you probably won't lose too much sleep if you lose it, either.NRA LIFE MemberComment

Not sure what the storage compartment is like on an ACS, but with the UBR, I just wrap a couple big rubber bands around them (like the ones that hold together bunches of broccoli or asparagus) and it works like a charm. Not to mention the added utility of have a couple big rubber bands around!------------------------------------------------------------
