    The majority of people want cheap. I can't count how many gun shop owners have told me that they sell a bajillion Tauruses and HiPoints to offset the Daniel Defense or KAC ARs that hang on the wall...

    But there's no reason why you couldn't have a vent rib AND good sights on a shotgun. It's not an either-or proposition. When I say I love vent ribs on a shotgun, it's not saying I want to use a...

    My eye just seems to naturally line up with the rib in a way it doesn't quite do with a plain barrel. Not everyone's works that way, but mine apparently does.

    I also find them just old-school...

    I went a bit off my usual path and watched "Delicious in Dungeon" based on several friends' recommendations. It legitimately surprised me. It has a lot of the usual exaggerated anime character...

    Also lighter, and includes the buffer. Plus, R&D costs money.

    FWIW I've been running one of the prototypes for the last year and it's been quite nice, fills all the little gaps and makes a more...

    The primary purpose is to reduce LOP even further. I do find that the KickEez thin pad has a nice radius at the heel to reduce snagging when mounting the gun, which is also nice.

    To me, the attraction is going to be a lighter-weight, handier platform. Yes, recoil will still be an issue, but with good technique that can be mitigated. The weight of the gun mostly can't, and I...

    It's been a while since I handled one of the X22 pads but I seem to recall them being not quite as squishy/cushy as the kickeez pads. I'd have to get my hands on one again to really be sure though.

    The ones I've seen have been a little tacky at first, but one session at the range dried them right out and they were fine.

    Tim's spot-on with this.

    Mag tubes just loosen under vibration over time, it's a thing. Witness mark your stuff, check it frequently, and re-tighten when needed.

    Yup. Fisher had a big hand in it, apparently, and it shows in a lot of the little touches.

    If your recoil management is solid, you don't need a thick pad. The thinner 'fighting' pad that Kick Eez makes lets you cut another 1/2" off LOP off the gun, which can be mighty handy.
