Hi, I'm new to the Canadian shooting scene - came over from South Africa recently.

Does anyone know whether there is a difference in felt recoil between the Knoxx Compstock and the SpecOps stock ?
 
on the spec ops verses a traditional stock some say there is none some say there is an extream differance all depeknds on who you ask
 
I put the Specops stock on my 14 inch 870 last week and noticed a big difference. 30 rds of mixed 2 3/4 and 3inch slugs shooting with just a t-shirt and no damage too my shoulder other than a small red mark.:D Before the switch it was a real pain in the ass too shoot. But like posted above some praise it and others dont.

Cheers

I have the SpecOps on mine. I haven't shot the Compstock, but I think the adjustable LOP on the SpecOps lets you get the gun fitting you properly, which goes a long way towards reducing felt recoil regardless of the reduction mechanism.
 
The compstock works well but as it is a more traditional configuration the felt difference isn't as great IMO. The spec ops has a pistol grip and compared to a non recoil reducing pistol grip the difference feels huge.

Agreed, this adjust-ability is the primary reason I chose the Spec Ops stock for my Zombie slayer. :)

Having now shot my SpecOps a fair bit:

SpecOps is HUGE recoil reduction over a solid buttplate.

Specops is a moderate recoil reduction over a R3/Limbsaver.

Now I just want to get the limbsaver for the Knoxx, should make it a complete baby to shoot.

All tested on a 870P 14" barrel.
 
Picked up and 870 Max Gobbler with the Knoxx Spec ops last Feb. as a deer/turkey gun. Big reduction in felt recoil with 3.5" 2oz turkey loads even compared to my Benelli SBEII with the comfortech stock and great to hold/aim from a sitting position for long periods of time.
Guess it could double as a "Zombie Gun"?
