Wanting to spread the word more!
Id like to get an official "list" started for those who are interested. The best way to get on the list is to email me directly at dan@shortactioncustoms.com with your name and the best email address to reach you. The final assembly will be sold through Short Action Customs.
DT shooters
Im looking to make a 2-3 way adjustable butt for the DT platform. A system that will snap into the existing chassis with no modifications to the chassis its self. Not so much a LOP adjustment but more for up and down adjustment and cant. This setup would use a traditional style recoil pad, not the DT factory one. It may look a little funky with a traditional style oval shaped pad but the main benefit being adjustably and being able to use a more recoil absorbing pad. Function over form right?My initial measurements are showing the following:
Adj butt + 1/2" pad is aprox the same LOP (+ 1/4" at most) as just using the factory recoil pad.
Adj butt + XLT pad (1.1") is aprox the same LOP (less than 1/4") as one spacer and factory pad.
My thoughts are to only offer the two recoil pad choices. Not sure if this will be offered with a no pad option, for the simple fact of not needing multipal mounting holes in the pad mounting plate or, multipal shapes. This adj butt is being designed to work with "large" size, grind to fit type recoil pads. I suppose there could be a list of "recoil pads that will fit"
