recoil pad for the Sport ?

[rebs081]

Is anyone using a slip on recoil pad on their Sport ? Which one are you using ?
Being from NY my Sport has a fixed stock. I would like to make it about an inch longer by using a slip on recoil pad which will also help my injured shoulder.

Maybe look into an A2 traditional stock for the rifle; they are a bit longer.
I can't imagine an AR having enough recoil to hurt a person while shooting, even with an injury. They are very mild mannered rifles.
But, for the guns that fight back a lot, I do really like Pachmeyer decelerator butt pads. They would help if you can find one that will fit the butt on the ar.

here is one

I use a recoil pad also as I am pretty thin and it helps a lot.

I put a ProMag slip-on recoil pad on my ArmaLite, which has the adjustable butt stock. It cost all of $8 and I did it to gain an extra 1/2" of pull.

I put a UTG slip-on on my stock S&W buttstock its almost an inch. Increased the LOP nicely for me. Had a problem with it occasionally coming off depending on who was shooting it and how they held it, so I used some RTV adhesive to adhere it in place and havent had a problem since.

I also purchased the UTG slip on recoil pad based on the suggestion of oneyeopn in a different thread. I bought it off amazon.com installed it without using any adhesive and has worked great

me too

i just got a UAG, slip on butt pad from amazon, ~$9.95.
in dry fire keeps my eye relief so i can see through the whole ocular without squinting or pulling back.
this butt pad's shoulder friction keeps my cheek weld in one place on a piece of 1" pipe insulation lightly tacked with contact cement to the buffer tube. will see if the utg pad improves shooting groups tuesday at range.

I put one of these on my NY compliant Sport, love it:

It fits so well, it's just part of of the gun to me now.

If you go down to page 3 of these threads you will find another question titled "Need Butstock Pad". You will find a couple other suggestions there. I am in the process of doing the same thing. Keep us posted on what works for you.

I believe I am going to order this one for my Sport after reading what you said about it.
Thank you

the UAG and the UTG are basically the same so it will be a good choice whichever way you go.....I think that a lot of UAG stuff has been called UTG stuff on some of the sales sites anyway. I am sure you will like it and it will serve you well.
