Slip on pads????

[Greg Baylander]

Thanks Stan. I think I need a medium in just about every brand I have researched for a 20 gauge 0 frame. I did buy a Pachmeyer Decelerator slip on through Ebay, and a limbsaver at Walmart. I will probably buy a few and see what I like best

If your looking for a "kick killer" pad look on e-bay a company called Tourbon makes a copy of the Kick killer for about $25.

Tourbon slip-on pads are more attractive than the Kick Killer slip-on pads because, when properly sized, the flap completely covers the velco. With the Kick Killer pads it leaves that big honkin' velco only partially covered. The above is my opinion only, your opinion may vary.

The problem with the Tourbon pad is that it's too big and will result in a sloppy fit on a 20ga 0-frame Parker stock.

Mike suggested that the Leatherman pads have a buckle and as a result are "faster". How is it that they're faster?

My 4 Galco slip-on pads are made from a softer more flexible leather than my stiffer hard leather Galazan Gamekeeper pad. Admittedly, I own just one Gamekeeper pad to compare, so it's not a big sampling.

I do not leave the slip on or tie on pads on the gun.I have had some leave marks on the gun, either stain or finish surface marks.

I have bought several Tourbon products and have been very satisfied. But they are made in China which is a problem for some folks.

Which is exactly why I only have the lace-on Kick Killers. No plastic crap anywhere on the pad, hidden or not. Speed of installation and removal is a non-issue for me. It only takes a couple minutes with the lace-ons.

I use the galazan gamekeepers on several guns. The medium fits everything but an 1892 DH with a larger butt. I also cut some old mousepads when I need to add extra LOP. With the velcro fastener, I can switch easily between guns.

Well there's always the old stand-by Packy-derm rubber pad. This-n' served my late FIL well for many years. Not the prettiest but they work...

I purchased two recently, the Tourbon as others have mentioned and a Kevin's branded. Both are nice pads but the Kevin's brand is a softer leather which provides a better fit.
