rhodri m Posted April 5, 2015 Report Share Posted April 5, 2015 Hi all, im looking for a decent recoil pad around 20mm thick to fit on my beretta 686s. The problem i have is the butt of my stock is curved. Also does anybody know a good gunsmith from west / mid wales who can do the job. Many thanks Rhodri m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortune Posted April 5, 2015 Report Share Posted April 5, 2015 Do you need 20mm to extend the length of the stock so that it is longer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhodri m Posted April 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2015 (edited) yes when i had a fitting they put a slip on one on and it was much better, but now i want to put a proper pad on it. but my stoch is curved Edited April 5, 2015 by rhodri m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshwarrior Posted April 5, 2015 Report Share Posted April 5, 2015 Stock will have to be straightened then a new pad fitted so you will most likely need a 25mm pad, easy job for any smith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhodri m Posted April 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 Trouble is welsh warrior I cant find a smith local to me, I contacted a shop called n.j guns and gunsmiths because there only 1 hour from me and they don't fit pads there and would have to send it to bath to get it done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fortune Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 yes when i had a fitting they put a slip on one on and it was much better, but now i want to put a proper pad on it. but my stoch is curved when the person did the fitting why didn't they fit a suitable pad there and then? Why don't you get a pad and fit it yourself? It isn't very hard to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't very hard to do. It was in a shop where they dont do gunsmithing, and as he only had the slip on pad he did me a good deal on the gun if i was to take it like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would't consider it gunsmithing either. it is just a simple diy job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhodri m Posted April 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 I would attempt to do it if I didn't have to cut my stock straight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
