541 buttplate

Post by Hawkeye7br »

I've acquired a 541 and am learning how to shoot it. I don't yet have a vest. The buttplate is smooth & slick. Do I merely replace it with a thin rubber pad? Can I put skateboard tape on it? What have others done for a budget solution? It wants to slide on my shoulder. Thanks in advance.

Skateboard tape would be cheap and fine.

Buy a flip-flop at the dollar store and cut a new butplate out. Works great and is not expensive.

If you buy the pair. Make one into your buttplate and stand in the other onelegged and shoot. Just like a young lady we know.
