   What does a shotgun stock do?

   • However, it also constitutes the grip of the shotgun, supporting the structure. The stock has a balancing function; it distributes the energy of the recoil onto the shoulder, as a result, reducing it. Too often, in fact, we are worried about aiming the shotgun correctly, avoiding sighting defects that can translate into missed shots and errors.

   Why is a shotgun stock longer than a standard stock?

   • The shotgun stock is usually longer than that of the shotgun because it shoots at targets on command and never jabs. To increase the length of the standard stock, the butt plate is used and modeled based on the shape and size of the stock. Furthermore, the butt plate can also be used to cushion the recoil and is also used for custom-made stocks.

   • Length of Pull. One of the most important measurements in fitting a shotgun to a shooter is length of pull (LOP). Shown as measurement ‘A,’ it is measured from the center of the butt to the center of the trigger and is seen as a fairly direct measurement of the length of the butt stock of any firearm.
   • Drop at Comb. To find drop at comb, a perpendicular line is drawn down from the rib line to the point of the comb and a measurement is taken (‘B’). This drop is one of the most critical of all the factors involving fit, allowing the cheek to rest at the right height, which in turn allows the eye to fall naturally in line with the rib.
   • Drop at Heel. Drop a perpendicular line from the rib line to the heel, as at ‘C,’ and the measurement is called the ‘drop at heel.’ Whereas a small change in drop at comb can make a big difference, a fairly wide range of measurements of drop at heel can be comfortably accommodated by the average shooter.
   • Drop at Toe. This is the distance from the rib line down to the bottom tip of the butt, ‘D.’ This is the lowest portion of the butt stock and is also the lowest part that contacts the shoulder.
