Thanks Stan. Mighty kind of you. Maybe I will melt some lead shot into a sheet.
I am not sure how far I can slide the protector onto the barrels because of the C shaped doohicky that hangs off the bottom rib to connect the sling that pulls out of the bottom of the butt stock. That puts it out of reach of my left hand so I will rig up some wire to hold it in case it slides. At least the weight will be more forward.
If it works, then I have to figure out something more permanent and aesthetically pleasing.
