Recoil Reducing Shotgun Stocks?

[The Wizard]

do recoil reducing stocks, specifically the Knoxx stocks (CompStock, SpecOps, and SpecOps Folder) really help reduce recoil?

I'll do as Chris did, and get one eventually. For now, I have the Remington R3 Recoil Pad, and - for $20 - it's not a bad deal 'til I get my share of the $700BN.

Yup, put several on the department scatterguns (Mossy 500's) and they do help immensely with the full powered buck and slugs. Pretty much converted the department over on their personal weapons also.

I'm not that enamored with them however, when I cheek them properly and fire, I get a particular slap from the stock that I don't get from a standard wood or synthetic stock. But then I'm kinda odd.

[The Wizard]

yeah i have read about some people that have a problem with "cheek slap", it seems to vary from person to person. some people say if you let the stock back out a click it helps.

They make a standard looking straight stocks for the 870 at least. Can't tell them apart from the regular black synthetic stocks.

It was mounted properly.
But the wrong stock drop for me.
The tube is mounted @1/2" too high for my use.
And no running it in and out through several settings didn't help.
And it's not a recoil issue, I shoot standard slugs through an Ithaca 37 for fun on range days.
Everybody else can have them.

Besides, they don't look even half as good as a plain piece of walnut.

ugly in a way that pisses of liberals and wussies everywhere

That's rarely appreciated nowadays and should be encouraged.

Ugly? Bull crappy! Not as aesthetically pleasing as a slab of walnut, definitely...

I just love your Feinstein Memorial, which I mistakenly called the Pelosi Heart Attack--shotgun...It is a rare beauty indeed!

It looks like something one could mount under an AR-15, were one so inclined.
