NOT! You must have no nerve endings and I know you can't shoot that thing as accurately as a full stock. No one can. Can't get around physics. Sir Isaac Newton wrote these "law things" that are pretty rough to argue with. Just not going for it. But if you say so.........

Accurate to 7 yards for my usage. I have an 870 in .410 for game shooting; my shoulder can handle that every once in a while.

Maybe I didn't make it clear. My pistol grip shotgun does have a full stock.

Well, that makes all the difference in the world. I stand corrected, Sir. Be safe, Brother.

I have JUST the thing for you, I have owned two so far, and they are worth every penny. It is a line of adjustable and folding stocks made by the Knoxx company that have recoil compensation built into them:

These things are fantastic, I can't speak highly enough of them.

Since the subject is shotgun stocks, may I recommend buying Sturm Ruger & Co. or Smith Wesson Holding Co.? Stocks have soared 20% and 40% respectively.

Thanks for the site. They look good and having your experience with the product is a big +.

+1 on the Knoxx/Blackhawk, great stocks.
I like the slider for the recoil reduction and adjustable pull. I take a lot of kids out shooting and this makes it easy to adjust to whomever is shooting the shotgun. Also makes the normal target loads feel almost like a .22 rimfire. Really nice for teaching new folks and not scaring/beating the crap out of them. http://www.blackhawk.com/product/Spe...k,1158,165.htm

I just bought a new Blackhawk NRS Specops (Knoxx) setup for my 870 and its Great!

Instead of messing up a perfectly good shotgun, go out and find a Springfield Arms M-6 Scout. It is an over-under shotgun/rifle usually in either .410/.22 or .410/.22 hornet. It holds the ammo in the stock, has no wooden parts and comes in stainless,parkerized or blued for any weather you can throw at it. The best part though is it folds in half and tucks about anyplace when you dont need it.

Does it need to be a shotgun?

Look at the Henry AR7.

xj2000 · 11-25-2009, 11:32 PM

I have a side folder stock on my Winchester and am quite happy with it. I had a top-folding stock previously, and it sucked, so I switched.

Rick · 11-25-2009, 11:35 PM

Hey XJ, why don't you fold your stock over at our Introduction section?
