I think you will be able to adjust to it. As we all know, many or most vintage guns have a lot of drop. I am surprised how fast you can get used to it. One of my tricks is to shoulder it a few times before I go to bed and then when I wake up I am usually good to go.
If I do shoot a gun with a lot of drop(and I did today a TA hammer gun with 3 1/2 inches). I just stick to shooting that gun for the day/outing. It is harder to switch back and forth in my opinion(between other Parkers...). I keep thinking for shooting sports like FITASC a gun with more drop might be an advantage, at least for me.... Let us know what gun you get Russell! |

I recently had an 0 frame stock bent DOWN about 1/4" with good success. Mitch Shultz did it for me, but he has just retired. He had a very good reputation. The key was that he took his time. It was in the fixture for over 10 days. It crept back a little bit the first time hee removed it, so he put it back in the fixture and gave it heat/oil for another 5 days. I was aiming for 2 3/4" and was satisfied with 2 9/16". I have had two other guns bent and the one I wanted bent upward had a very fine crack develop. I use a Beretta stick on Gel riser with good luck. It looks like hell, but works |

Have searched the cave and did not find either one. I have a feeling one went to my son, the strap on, for his Parker. The other is a mystery in my foggy memory. I got the sock type from Cabela's but do not remember the makers name.

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.

You may call it one man's experience, or advice. Many of the available 'comb riser' devices drape over the comb evenly, and down the side of the stock, to some extent. I found that it I mount the stick-on Gel pad only enough to cover the comb, at your cheek bone, and the excess, off to the outside, you will not inadvertently add unwanted cast. Mounted incorrectly, you will raise your point of impact, but also shift it right, or left, depending if you are a common, right handed shooter, or a rare but unique south paw.
