  I was thinking of ordering the Limbsaver recoil pad for my Benelli 121 M1. Anyone know if these actually work? They have the exact fit for Super Black Eagle, Sport 12 ga.,M-1 Field & Montifeltro 12 ga. Wood. These are all the same and only model. Will this fit a Benelli 121 M1? What about the grind to fit? Is it easy? Look OK?

  This may be a weak reply but a buddy of mine put the Limbsaver on one of his high-powers and raved about how good it is. I believed him since he is almost as anal as I am in gadget analysis and I ordered/received one a few weeks ago for my Remington. The bad new is I can't get to the range until the end of the month (

  i have one on my 270. it works great. the only thing you need to consider is that it will add 1 1/4 inch length of pull to your firearm if you are replacing the plastic or metal pad from the gun.
  i would not suggest placing one on a shotgun that you are using to shoot trap or skeet. the rubber (TOP END OF THE PAD), will catch your clothing on the rise. it is a soft rubber that "sticks". most of the limbsavers are made for plastic stock applications. i know that my remington pad (same as the limbsaver), is for plastic stocks.
  overall, it works as advertised.

  the limb saver, made by Sims Vibration Labs, is a god send. i put one on my .308 pss with a 22" barell. i'm pretty much a recoil wimp. i shoot all day with it on. my 9 year old daught is 4'6" and 55lbs soaking wet. she shoots this gun in the prone position. she gets about 10 shots before she quits. if it will let a 55 lbs 9 year old girl shoot a 308, it works!!!

  I put one on my super light Benelli M1 Super 90 20g. The gun used to bruise my shoulder, but now is a kitten. They are worth the money. however, as mentioned before, they do add alot of length. I was not happy about that aspect. But so far, it has not been a problem.

  I'm gonna give you a very biased but also experienced opinion here. The Limb Saver recoil pad is the greatest recoil technology I've ever seen. I honestly believe the limb saver will eventually replace porting for recoil relief due to the inexpensive fix it offers and no worries with increase in noise levels often created by porting the barrel. I rep the Sims Limbsaver products in the southeast and have shot the pads on many shotguns and rifles both before and after installation. These things are unreal and should be retailing for just under $40 most anywhere in the states. They don't make the pad for "all" guns, but the slip on's work nicely for those that may not have availability for their specific gun. Take a look at their website for more info: www.limbsaver.com
  
  hope this helps,

  I have heard only good things about them. They do not make one for my Sako TRG-s but they make a slip on pad and a grind to fit pad that work as generic models. At the least they are probably as good as anything, most likely they are the best being as Remington bought them out.

  Best thing I have bought in years. Have one on my Benneli SBE, And Mossberg 835 Ultimag. To stop the sticking problem spray them with STP Son OF A GUN like you use on you're car dash.
