High Lord Gomer Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 While over for Thanksgiving, my father-in-law said he'd like to start shooting if he could find a shotgun stock that fit him. He's tall and has a long neck. Most shotgun stocks would need to drop at the rear by about 4 inches to fit him properly. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EkuJustice Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 (edited) I would say pick out the type of gun you want and then have an adjustible but pad put on the gun which lowers the pad on the gun. Another option would be a wenig stock(prices arnt bad at all if you can finish the fitting yourself and finish the stock which took me about 45 min to fit a stock to a remington). The wenig new american stock is a very good stock for a tall shooter as it has the drop built in, is cast for a right hand shooter(should be able to make it for a lefty too) and has a long lenth of pull. If you are even semi handy with tooks its easy to fit them to semi auto guns. here is an example of one of the adj butt pads http://www.gunfitter.com/ and wenigs address WWW.wenig.com Edited December 2, 2008 by EkuJustice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwx40x40 Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 HLG You may want to try talking to Steve at Pinetucky. He has quite a bit of experience fitting stocks to their owners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
