Ranger Posted January 2, 2005 Posted January 2, 2005 Hello I'm new to the fourm. I just bought a SBE for myself and a M1 20ga for my wife. The M1 is in the shop having the stock cut to 13 LOP and being fitted with a terminator recoil pad. My question is with the stock being that short can it still accept a recoil reducer in the stock? Do you replace the stock nut with the suppressor or put the suppressor on behind it? Quote
doublebarrel Posted January 2, 2005 Posted January 2, 2005 The Benelli web site says that the recoil reducer is only available for the 12 gauge. I don't know what size shells your wife will be shooting, but my 13-year-old daughter uses a youth model 20 ga Nova Pump, and she has shot as many as 92 field loads in an hour without a problem. She is only 5’1’’ and 105 lb. The M1 will also shoot a little softer than the Nova. Quote
Golden Bear Posted January 2, 2005 Posted January 2, 2005 Ranger-- Remington makes a Low Recoil shell in 20ga. that shoots great. My wife shoots skeet tournaments and she shoots 200 rounds a day with no problem . She shoots a K-80 O/U and has shot every brand of ammo out there and says these are the softess shooting. Hope this info helps.--GB Quote
Golden Bear Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 Ranger-- The softest recoil pad is the Gooey or the Super Gooey by Trapdude and they have 3 thicknesses, 3/4", 1", and 1-1/4". You can check their website www.trapdude.com. C & H Research makes Mercury Recoil Reducers that are as short as 3" and as small as 3/4" in dia. Their website is www.mercuryrecoil.com. Maybe some of these products will work. Good luck.--GB Quote
Ranger Posted January 3, 2005 Author Posted January 3, 2005 Thanks for the info Golden Bear and doublebarrel. One more thing, I shoot left handed with a right handed gun. Is it possible to switch the saftey around on the sbe? Quote
Drundel Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 yes it is, i've read that a gunsmith can do it in minutes. Quote
Golden Bear Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 Ranger, I spoke to George (the owner) at Trapdude and they just came out with a 1/2" Gooey Pad. It may be a better thickness for your wife's gun. Thought I'd update you on the pad situation. Good luck.--GB Quote
