SMALL Recoil Pad

ClemsonSMALL Recoil Pad
I'm fixing up a gun for a gentleman with dwarfism. The length of pull is shortened so much that I need a VERY small recoil pad. Are there any pads out there that I can grind down without running into a metal insert? The pad dimensions will be about 3 5/8 by 1 5/16.

Mike ScottYou might check Kick-Eez. I'm pretty sure they do not have a metal insert.

Conneticut Shotgun has Silvers and others, red, brown, I think, with no metal.

ClemsonI had originally intended to use a Silvers pad, but the screw spacing on that one is too wide. I may be able to fit a flat plastic buttplate on it instead of a pad.

z1rThe Pachmayr Old English Youth pad is the same size as their small, but it lacks the metal insert.

loud-n-boomerKick-Eez should work. I had one on a gun for my daughter when she was 12 that was ground down to about 20% smaller than a conventional small.
