How to give weapons and armor to raiders?

I've been scouring the vids trying to find out how I can better equip my raiders but I can't find anything. I could manually do it, sure, but isn't there a central location I can dump my excess armor and weapons so that the raiders will just grab it and equip themselves? I know there's a mechanic like that for normal settlements so I assume there'd be one for the raiders.
 
with conq there is a martial plot (2x2) that will equip your raiders befitting their rank.
It also provides a few grenades/molotovs during raids.

the other option is to manually equip them better gear in the traditional way of trading with them.

If you feel experimental there is a mod that you can equip settlers centrally.
BEWARE THAT MOD IS NOT DEVELOPED FOR SS MAKE BACKUPS OF YOUR SAVE.
[REDACTED]
EDIT: after exensive testing the mod does not work with conq.

I find that I can usually make and upgrade captured equipment that is better than what the Armory can equip my peeps with. Also, the Armory (the last time I used it at least a month or so ago) would replace my lovingly crafted gear with poo poo pauldrons.

Having said that, either invest the time to personally upgrade your crew's gear, or let the Armory do it for you. Doing both at the same time is not advised by me.

I think if you yourself equip any items on your recruits it's definitely a good idea to go ahead and turn off armory equip via the role menu for that individual recruit. I feel like I've lost a pimped out minigun or two by not doing so.
