bigreid Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Does anyone know if Benelli has come out with a stock extension to increase LOP on the SBEII? Thanks a bunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leftie Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 not sure about the stock extention but i do know they have 3 different thicknesses of recoil pad if that would help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigreid Posted January 29, 2009 Author Share Posted January 29, 2009 Thanks lefty, but I need another 1 1/2" from the the longest pad they have. I inquired about 2 years ago and they said they were working on one. I was hoping they had came out with a way to increas the LOP, I am 6'8" with a 7' wingspan, I have about a 16" LOP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leftie Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 that is quite a wing span , its probably another bad sujestion but have you tried a pull over recoil pad ,on top of your existing one , good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also wear a padded shooting vest. Benelli definitely needs to come out with an accessory pad thats longer for the larger statured folks Edited January 30, 2009 by johnnywitt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigreid Posted January 31, 2009 Author Share Posted January 31, 2009 that is quite a wing span , its probably another bad sujestion but have you tried a pull over recoil pad ,on top of your existing one , good luck When Benelli told me they were coming out with an extension I decided against a local gunsmith "modification" and wait, so I bought a limbsaver pullover recoil pad to get a little more LOP. It works alright but with the angled Benelli recoil pad it doesn't fit all that well. I primarily use the gun for duck hunting so I usually have a lot of clothes on but I would still like to get the gun to fit better. It has been a great gun, I have never had a problem and I absolutely love it, I just wish I could get another 1 1/2" longer stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdaggett Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Try replacing the factory abgled recoil pad with a flat aftermarket one, then put the slip on limbsaver. I replaced the angled pad with a flat limbsaver to get an extra 1/4 inch, and actually got an even softer recoil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackDogs3 Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I don't know if this helps, but the new batch of 2008 SBEII Comfortechs have a stock that is about 3/8" longer than normal. They come with the 14 LOP Comfortech pad but the LOP measures 14 3/8. It's a little more length and you could get up to 14 7/8 with a 14.5 LOP pad. I talked to Benelli and the said that they tried to make a 15" LOP pad but it did not work out so they increased the stock length a bit for those who want a longer LOP.
