Do pilots typically have a stock with their issued Stetchkin, or is that considered too bulky for the cockpit?

The APS's stock serves as a holster as well. When not in use you're just carrying the weapon inside it's stock.

I’m aware, but I’m fairly certain they have other holster options. There is a wire stock variant so there must be a holster that was made to fit them. Also I’ve seen a picture of a pilot in Syria holding one without a stock visible anywhere. It looked to me like he had been carrying it on a pouch on his vest.

I believe it's a holster stock so drivers/pilots are likely carrying APS inside the stock

I'm surprised that I keep seeing PSS popping out in random places all around the world, which makes me wondering how difficult it is to acquire ammo for them
