Not sure I understand the point of having quick draw as a feat when anyone can draw a weapon as a free action if they have a +1 BAB.
What is the RAW for using quick draw and the ninja talent, hidden weapon in tandem? Can a hidden weapon be drawn as a free action?
What about ammunition? Can hidden shuriken be drawn as free actions without the need for either hidden weapon or quick draw?

Drawing a weapon with a +1 bab is not a free action.
As part of a move action, drawing a weapon states:
If you have a base attack bonus of +1 or higher, you can combine one of these actions with a regular move. If you have the Two-Weapon Fighting feat, you can draw two light or one-handed weapons in the time it would normally take you to draw one.
Quick draw changes this to a free action to draw a weapon(not hidden), or draw a hidden weapon as a move action. (you still can't draw that hidden weapon while using the move action.)
And the ninja trick says you can draw a hidden weapon as a move action as well, in addition to some bonus' to sleight of hand checks to conceal said weapon.

What is the RAW
I cringe when I see this question. Is it that you don't have access to it, can't be bothered to look it up, or don't know what "RAW" means?
Anyway, having +1 BAB means you can draw a weapon as a free action as part of a regular move. This means no full-attacks that round. Quickdraw lets you draw a weapon as a free action regardless of what else you do in that round.

Draw or Sheathe a Weapon: "Drawing a weapon so that you can use it in combat, or putting it away so that you have a free hand, requires a move action. ... If you have a base attack bonus of +1 or higher, you may draw a weapon as a free action combined with a regular move."

Hidden Weapons (Ex) allows you to draw hidden weapons as a move action, instead of as a standard action.
Quick Draw also allows you to draw a hidden weapon as a move action.
Having them stack to allow it as a free action might be a reasonable house rule, so ask your GM.

The rules aren't clear. I would not plan on being able to draw any hidden object as a free action.
