LimbSaver AirTech Recoil Pad

Post by 357Mag » Sat May 16, 2020 11:11 pm

Howdy,
Has anyone here tried a LimbSaver AirTech slip on Recoil Pad , on a Big Boy Classic that comes with the brass butt plate ?. Recoil isn't a issue . I just don't care for how the brass slides around , and I could use the extra length of pull to make my Brass gun closer to the same length as my Color Case Guns that come with a rubber pad. I've seen them priced around $24.99 and if you have one is it the small or medium ?

I have used that pad before on a marlin 45-70 with a hard rubber butt plate. It is nice for what it is, but it tends to slip to the side after a few shots, then you have to readjust it into place again.. Hope this is helpful.

Mine works great on my Marlin Guide Gun, though it ain't no slip on.

I got a slip-on for my Marlin 336W from Walmart. I use it when I shoot from the bench. It works fine. I had a gunsmith (used by the LGS) install a permanent one initially. But, I did not like how it fix.
