3. Add or subtract spacers to fit your firearm to your
specifications (Figure 16). After making an adjustment
hold the shotgun to your shoulder to determine if the
new length feels comfortable. Remember to always
keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction, with the
safety in the “on safe” position and make certain the
shotgun is completely unloaded.
4. When you are satisfied with the length of pull, start the
screws through the pad and spacer(s) into the holes in
the stock.
5. Attach the recoil pad to the stock using the
screwdriver. Turn the screws clockwise to tighten.
Do not overtighten the screws.
ADJUSTING CAST AND DROP AT COMB
Six shims have been included with your composite
stocked shotgun (Figure 17). The shims fit between the
buttstock and receiver, allowing customized adjustments
to the comb and heel. Each shim is labeled/stamped for a
specific amount of adjustment. The neutral shim, No. 2, is
already installed on your shotgun.
Drop at comb is defined as the place on the comb that
your cheek rests when taking aim. If drop at comb is
correct,your eye falls in line with the sight bead. Shims
marked 1, 2 and 3 do not give any cast on or off. The
stock remains straight. They only adjust drop at comb.
These shims with their respective stamps are further
clarified here:
Shim 1 raises the comb approximately
1
16", and the
heel approximately
1
8".
Shim 2 is neutral. This shim is already installed on
your shotgun.
Shim 3 lowers the comb approximately
1
16", and the
heel approximately
1
8".
Cast is the offset of the buttstock from the longitudinal
center line of the firearm. Some right-handed shooters
like the stock to angle away (cast off) from their face,
making their line of sight more directly in line with
the rib. Angling the stock to the left for left-handed
