The problem with bending the stock is you have to bend the trigger guard and top tang as well. This can also effect the trigger sears. Thats a lot to try to bend esp if it's a pistol grip gun. I have a CHE 20 that had a lot of drop it was impossible to bend it enough so it got restocked.

Rich,
Your points above are what I'm afraid of with a stock bend. It is a straight stock, but it would be a losing proposition to do a restock. I guess I can put a pad on it to get the correct LOP and maybe reduce some weight by hollowing out the stock. I'm not sure how well the gel pad will work in the brambles. Thanks, Ken |

Ken I don't think you will have any problems with the jell pad. I once had a GHE 16 with 30 inch vent rib barrels that had to much drop and not enough LOP. I used a slip on pad and a lace on leather comb riser. The gun looked like it was out of some S&M movie but at least I could shoot it.
