I believe an 0 frame 20 has an 0 size butt, but an 0 framed 16 has a 1 size butt.

Edgar this is still a good 1/2 inch shorter in length than any other 0 frame 20 I have. I'll just have to learn to shoot it the way it is or fins a small slip on pad for it.

Edgar, both sizes of frame and both gauges have either size of stock and butt. My 12 gauge DHE half frame has a zero or less size butt and I have a DHE #1 frame 16 with a zero or less size butt. I had a 28" VH zero frame 16 with a #1 size stock and butt, but it still only weighed six pounds, four ounces.

I just measured an original 0 sized butt plate at 4 13/16", tip to tip.
Bill, I've never seen a 12 bore with an 0 sized butt. That had to be special ordered. Was is mentioned in the order book? I do have a 16 with an 0 sized butt, and also one with a 1 sized butt. I always assumed my 0 sized (0 frame) 16 was either switched with a 20 ga. butt, but I suppose it's possible it was special ordered also. Does you gun with the smaller-than 0 butt have a pad or SSBP? |

I don't think butt sizes were written in stone so to speak. The size selected was all part of the weight/balance equation.

There may have been more latitude in padded butts or skeleton steel butt plates, however there isn't that much border around the hard rubber plates that can be sanded/ground/milled (or whatever) down from the standard molded plates. So are you suggesting that there were others than the ones with a 0, 1, 2 molded into the back side?

Rich, Galco has a extra small slip on pad, I have all five from extra small to the extra large for the Ten.
