Recoil Pad fixture jig
Anybody got one I could borrow? Have had one ordered from Midway (Miles Gilbert)for two months, they keep telling me it is back ordered. I would be glad to pay shipping both ways, need to get my new Limbsaver on the Citori. Got crats to splat.

Not me. In fact I'm about to order one of my own from Brownell's. Smiler

Loaded up some 1 1/2 oz. copper platted , buffered #6's over the weekend, they are bad to the bone, the one in my shoulder too. I could stick them in SBE, but I figure the double is right for night time DG!

I watched a freind do my BT99 pad a few years back without a fixture .

He took the stock off .
Mounted the pad .
Wraped a layer of some kind of alumin foil tape around the stock tight to the pad .
Then a layer of duct tape .

He then proceded to sand down to the duct tape with a 12"disk sander .

When he was done the duct tape had a few scrapes , but the foil tape didn't have any cuts .

A better fit tha the factory in 10 min .

He stated that 90% of the trouble was having the right sandpaper and the right speed .

But doing pads for 30 years and having nerves of steel don't hurt.

I have done several for myself .
I take a hour and replace the duct tape several times .
I use Alumin exaust patch tape
But I get the results I want .

I love to tinker, but have about eight thumbs on each hand. I do great work with a sledge or a jackhammer, but my finesse seems to be absent, or broken. Getting the pad up against a 90 degree belt sander sans the gun is probably the right thing for me. I would rather not have the "Opps" that normally occurs when I start on something, happen to the stock of my best weapon. If it has a cord on it, and can do damage, I have been there, done that.
