Hi figgy if I go down the wood root I would cut it to fit inside the stock .I was looking inside the stock and the ridges for the screws run the full length of the stock .So in theory I could use the same holes to screw the wood on wherever I cut it .
-
Thanks for that figgy I was thinking along the same lines . But filling it out with resin maybe the stuff they fill cars I would have to put a small pipe or something as the bolt that holds the stock to the gun is in there

Hi lads it was the Armoury they put me through to they told me they can't help .buy a wooden stock and cut it down

Hi fen tiger the rubber pad measures 2 inches at the widest .The gentleman i spoke to at Edgar brothers sounded like he wasn't bothered

Hi lads I phoned Edgar brothers today they were not very helpful they told me they don't sell a shorter butt pad and the stock I have can't be cut . What he did say was he could sell me a wooden stock that would fit and I could cut it off to any length I wanted so everything is not lost . The down side the stock is £45 to £50 off the top of his head and the price of cutting it if I don't do it myself . Thanks to all of you that tried to help me I appreciate it regards Mike

Thanks snoozer for going to the trouble of taking it apart I can see from your pictures what I was thinking I will phone tomorrow to see if they sell a short pad that will fit I see billy thinks you were robbed he was as well I only paid £415 for mine new thanks again for doing that for me regards Mike

Hi tight choke I use it for pidgins and I have had no bother with it it runs like it should I was out last week after a fox and as it was tamping from the heavens I dressed for the acasion but the stock is catching in my clothing when mounting

Thanks tight choke I am running out of ideas
-
Thanks fen I have shims to change angle ect but there are no shims in if I put one in it will make it longer regards Mike

I was thinking that if I take off the rubber pad I would be left with a v shape on the end of stock .If I was to cut this square and do the same with the pad I would loose approx 2 1/2 inches .then if this is to much i could put back a shim .I have to cut so much because of the shape of it . There must be a gun Smith or someone who can give me advice . The only thing I am not sure of is how this will affect the screws holding butt on as I am not sure how long they are or if they go right through to the gun itself
