lx2008 4 Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 hi guys, after i bought my legion 433a a couple of months i bought a UTG model 47 combat butt pad. feels ok to reduce the recoil of heavy field loads i use and somewhat ok for defensive high-power loads but the pad slips off every once and a while. it slips on the standard butt stock of the 433a but not very tight. is there another brand that will work really well for recoil and fit very tight? not interested in changing the stock. if you got a link of where to buy one, please send me one via IM. thanks!

Turbo.M777 11 Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 (edited) I have a limbsaver pad on my S12 tromix stock, and its magnificent. Definitely kept my shoulder from getting sore after firing a TON of slugs and other high power shells. Limbsaver makes a lot of pads for numerous stocks, and they have a universal 'grind to fit' one that can be mounted to stocks they don't make one for. Its actually the only stock pad I've ever had, but I like it. It is actually just glued on the back of the buttstock with "plumbers goop" which hold it extremely well, but if you TRY to remove it, you can get it separated, and you can peel like rubbery glue off like rubber cement, and you can get it all off without much trouble. So, maybe try gluing your existing pad on with some plumbers goop to keep it on! (Plumbers goop is what is actually recommended by the manufacturer to attach the limbsaver pad to the tromix stock.)

timy 1,185 Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 All you need to do is wrap a few rounds of electrical tape on your stock and the pad won't slip off any more. Plus, it's still easily removed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

filthygovemploye 64 Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 i like the kick eez. gun fun has a write up over on the tech section... they say it reduces 99% of recoil or something... not sure on numbers, but they work good. kick eez jr from midway is what works on surplus ak47 stocks... have fun!

gunfun 3,931 Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 I suggest getting them on Ebay. For AK stocks, every size they make is big enough. And a take off from someone's trap gun from 1985 is still good. They don't dry up like rubber. I need to do one for the Ruger 30/06.

sneaky 2 Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 I use one of the "grind to fit" limbsaver pads. Have it on a MAA ace stock. Took the time to grind the curve, drill and tap the stock and it is completely worth it. Super comfey. Eats up the recoil on higher powered stuff. 5'2" girlfriend loves shooting it after i put the pad on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
