I don't know how much you'd want it bent, but it's unlikely you can get more than 1/4" or so, or so I'm told. Plus, they sometimes go back.

The Leatherman makes a lace on pad that fastens around the butt to keep everything stationary. He also makes those wrap around pads but they only give you about 1/4”. The comb is leather that is adjustable for height with its Velcro backing. It was made for rifle shooters but I bought one at the Southern a few years back to address a grade 3 hammergun with 3.5” of drop. He has a website. Worked like a charm

I’d go along with that if it were an only gun situation but not so much if you regularly shoot 6 or 7 and there’s a big difference between them all .

I didn't say it was always easy...but for the right gun I think it's worth it. I have my limits too, once the drop is past 3 1/2 - 3 3/4 I throw in the towel.

Mike altered the chokes on a set of grade-1 Laminated Steel barrels for me about 5 years ago.

Bending for cast | ![]() |

I have sent 4 guns to Dan Morgan in Vermont , all of them were English stocks . The first two were a Parker and a Fox which had both been restocked. I wanted about an 1” positive cast and he was able to get them where I wanted them . I asked him about bending a pistol grip and he said if it would bend he could only get 1/8” , I didn’t send him the pistol grip . Last mouth I sent him a 1925 Wesley Richards drop lock and a Fox SP Skeet both with original stocks . He was able to get almost what I wanted in the WR but couldn’t get the Fox to move at all . I know there’s a chance for them to move but $500 for bending is cheaper than a new stock . I’m have a pistol grip stock made for a Parker DHE 20 gauge by Wenig Custom Gunstocks and could buy a nice Parker for what I’m paying for the stock. That’s my 2 cent worth on bending stocks.
