bcruze Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 I'm planning on replacing my stock recoil pad with a Limbsaver. Does anyone have any idea what size/type screw is behind those tiny holes in the stock recoil pad (it's a SNT collapsible, but I assume they're all the same)? Feels like a philips but I don't want to strip it out trying to unscrew it and would rather have the correct size. Thanks in advance! Quote
truckcop Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 Yes, it's a phillips head. I always use a medium size screwdriver, large enough to engage the head properly, small enough to get into the holes of the pad. Rub a little oil/vaseline/grease on the screwdriver shaft. It will go in and out easier without damaging the pad. Quote
Sukhoi_fan Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 It is suggested you go to the source and call Benelli to find out for sure how to remove it. Someone posted about their experience on here recently regarding trying to remove the buttpad by 'unscrewing the screws' - turned out that the buttpad snaps on a couple of posts. Quote
truckcop Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 Never a bad idea to go to the source. However, all Benelli snap-on butt pads I have encountered are on field or non-collapsible pistol grip stocks. None of those have little holes at each end. Those holes being present are probably a good indication of screws back there. However, I have not encountered every Benelli out there and they have been known to change things without telling us.
