Stock Length

Seems like my rifle is too short for my arms.

Any way to unscrew my butt plate, put something in there, and screw it back on, but now a 3/4 - 1 inch back farther?

thanks for the links kev!

I don't like the idea of a different stock, I really like the idea of spacers.

I did some more research tonight, and pulled the 3 guns I'm interested in making longer down and pulled the back end off...

my remington 870 is a synthetic stock, and it's hollow. The butt pad slips into the butt itself, and there's no way to put a spacer that isn't custom made in. I'm not entirely sure what I could do here short of getting a new stock, or a custom fit spacer...I don't really like the wrap around type of recoil pads.

my remington model 5 is the easiest. solid wood. a spacer shaped from stiff rubber or wood would be fantastic in this case.

my tikka t3 lite has support inside the butt that would support a rubber spacer, but they might have to be fitted inside the stock for a small part...tough, but not impossible.


as it turns out, all 3 stocks are the same length...it would be really awesome if they would all be able to be solved with the same product....

good luck Heffy the reason i added the tactical stuff is alot of tact stuff has adjustable buttpads (especially that 1000 dollar euro unit)

yeah, I did notice that the tactical stuff has adjustable pads, but I bought my rifle because it was LIGHT and easy to carry, and easy to use.

I did find some adjustable buttpads for AR's...not helpful to me though


I'll keep searching, I guess
