That is a great idea Remington40x however I would be upside down on the gun. It is not an expensive gun. Just one that appeals to me right now. If I shoot it well it is a keeper but if I don't then it goes. Thanks.

Walt, thanks for your wisdom. Putting on a pad is something I would enjoy doing if it makes sense. It is a small investment of time and money. I think the way it looks bothers me although I like the gun. I could live with it the way it is also. Winter is coming and some metal cleaning and wood refinishing might also be in order if I get it.

I was wondering how others feel about it. It is a decent job but it is obvious. We have all seen similar, maybe done by the local gunsmith as opposed to the stockmaker. Which looks better, the 1" extension or the pad?


So many guns, so little time!
