blairmckenzie1 Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I need some suggestions on a recoil pad that won't snag on my shirt. My SX2 has a nice soft recoil pad but every time I go to mount it the grippy pad snags on my shirt. I don't mind fitting it to the stock. Any help is appreciated.

LikesToShoot Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 You might want to check out a product called: Easy Glide Recoil Pad Coating. IIRC, Limb Saver used to sell a coating that you could brush on like finger nail polish and it helped reduce the snag. Just apply it to the top and sides so that when the gun is mounted the rubber can grip and not slide off. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blairmckenzie1 Posted December 28, 2013 Author Share Posted December 28, 2013 thanks for the tip. can't find it though. that is what I'm looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LikesToShoot Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 It came with a pad I installed years ago but I don't see it listed anymore. You may want to check out the Speed mount pads from Limbsaver.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flack jacket Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I know how you feel on the stickiness. . I felt that Techwear jersey+ Rubber pad on JM Pro.. sticky when mounting and dismounting. Here's what I found:: Duct tape, specifically "Woodland camo" Hehe. Ugly but effective temporarily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunCat Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 thanks for the tip. can't find it though. that is what I'm looking for. Slick-Eez from Kick-Eez Also, Pachmayr sells a “sporting clay” pad that has a harder insert at the top to help the pad slide up without hanging Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ranger Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Sporting clays shooters often wrap the sides of the recoil pad with black electrical tape to help with their mount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roxymajor Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Most of us 3gunners grind off that sharp bottom corner of the recoil pad. I guess it depends on what pad you have...wether it can be ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wgj3 Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I've gone the duct tape route myself. I opted for red simply because it's the fastest color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
co-exprs Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Yep, all sound advice. I had the same problem. I rounded off the bottom corner and then wrapped electrical tape around the outside so that the rubber was only exposed on the back. No more snags and it doesn't look too bad.

P.E. Kelley Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 http://www.kickeezproducts.com/rocker.php My personal favorite. Great at everything a recoil pad should do. AND ergonomically correct to fit us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five of Clubs Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 I use a Kick Killer slip on recoil pad on my O/U that would likely work. The surface is smooth leather and has pretty much no grip. Unlike some of the other slip on pads, it doesn't add much to the LOP either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
