I looked around to see if this was asked before and couldn't find anything. And I'm not sure if this is the correct sub-forum. I need to have a shotgun stock shorted to my LOP.

(God blessed me with short arms) Any recommendations for a gunsmith in the northern NJ area to do such work? I live in Somerset county and work in Bergen county. So anything north of say, Flemington, is fine.

 

Thanks everybody.

Get a collapsible stock assuming its a pump. Will probably cost the same and then you have a gun that anyone can use

 

 

Sent from my hidden under ground bunker between Taco Bell and the dry cleaner

i am blessed with t-rex arms as well..

 

if you wanna go a more traditional route look at the houge stock (usually used with body armor)

why you ahve to pay more for less of a stock is asinine lol

Look for wood workers in your area. You can always take the stock off and bring it to them to work on. Just measure your own LOP and mark the stock where is needs to be around, any competent wood worker would be able to modify the stock and make it look nice too.

It might cost you more to have someone cut your existing stock then just buying one off the shelf. You might be better off cutting it yourself then getting a recoil pad to cover up the cut.

 

What type of gun and what LOP are you looking for?

Thanks guys, it's a Remington 1100 20 gauge.

how short a stock do you need, a youth stock is usually about 13'' w/o a pad

If you are looking to get a custom fitting done, PM me. I am headed to Griffin & Howe Shooting School up in Andover tomorrow morning with my Beretta Silver Pigeon. The combination of a flat, high comb without cast, and my pudgy face, mean that my gun doesn't line up right. I am getting gun measurements taken and they will steam my stock (and cut if necessary) and apply the right amount of cast, and drop (if needed). Stocks almost always fit me without any problem. Field stocks have lower combs. My trap gun has an adjustable comb and plenty of cast, so it is fine. It is the non-adjustable sporting stocks that leave me feeling like someone punched me in the jaw. What is nice is that I have the measurements sheet and any stock fitter will be able to use the numbers and mold the stock to my exact required dimensions.
