Might be a dumb question...Mystery Ranch Pop Up 40

[Luked]

Brother just bought a Mystery Ranch Pop Up 40 pack.
This is his first higher end pack.
When we got it in I noticed this on the top of the pack.
What is this for? is it to add something as far as an accy?
almost looks like a piece is missing but the images of others i found online show the same.
Just dont know a lot about the Mystery Ranch stuff.

It's a 1/4-20 thumbscrew intended to be used as a place to mount binos, spotter, ballhead, etc.

Well how about that

Interesting.
I would have never thought.
Glad I asked.

It’s not the worst idea I’ve seen. Interesting.

So inexpensive, so useful. It's brilliant!

I really like that. You could leave your tripod at home for fast and light trips.

That’s super interesting. Never seen that before.

Now I need to go see if mine has it (Mystery Ranch 18). Pictures don't look like it, but maybe there is a way,...
