What was this ?

[Jeff Bonadurer]

Hi All,
I recently purchased this 16 ga. It has some sort of leather laminate shim and
and nothing else. See photos. Anyone know about this ? Thanks.

Best,

Jeff

It looks as if someone was changing the pitch and/or LOP. The screw holes would suggest a buttplate that is missing.

What is the length of pull right now as it is with those spacers on there? And also to the wood without the spacers?

[Jeff Bonadurer]

Brian,

LOP to the end of the wood is 13.5"
LOP to the end of the add on is 14 "

Best regards,

Jeff

It appears as though someone removed a rather strangely applied leather covered pad...

[Brian Dudley]

I do not know what your preferred LOp is, but that length makes for plenty of room to install a period correct recoil pad and have up to a 14.5" LOP. If you like a shorter LOP, a dogs head buttplate could even be fitted and put back on.

Brian,

I'm a tall fellow. I like the idea of a period correct pad.

Thanks for the advice.


Best regards,

Jeff
