What buttstock is that?
That is the Knoxx recoil absorbing stock.
That's what I thought. Just wanted to be sure. Thanks.
+1....on the 8.5 grizzly holding the foregrip so that your fingers are up against that turned down part will hurt like a mofo when you fire it. I have to hold it at the opposite end of the foregrip. What are the vertical grip options available for this model ?

suck it up, buttercup
100lb girls have fired 3" slugs out of mine and not complained
Man, there is no way you hold it with your finger up against that turned down peice.....my guess is that you and the 100lb girls have approx the same size hands and lots of room on that little foregrip so that its not an issue for you
Definitely don't use the nub as a brace for your front hand!
How much the gun recoils back depends a lot on how you are positioned. I find that a more squared to the target stance allows my body to absorb the recoil better then if I'm angled off in a more traditional stance.

I asked CanadaAmmo last year if they could get the Chinese to make some folding vertical grips like Serbu and Safety Harbour (keg 12)make and Chris ( I believe) did mention that they were thinking about it.
I doubt there is any kind of patent issue or else Safety Harbour wouldn't be making their version.
I've emailed Serbu in the past with no response and I sent Safety Harbour an email today to see if they are interested in sending some foreends North. Probably a hassle due to US restrictions so maybe China is the best option.
It looks like a pretty basic design maybe we could get a fabricator in Canada to do a 100 or so.....

touché
my hand is big enough to hit both CTRL keys at once on a full-sized keyboard. ive had no problems with the lip thing, and find it almost impossible to have my thumb extend past the muzzle with the shotgun properly shouldered. and yeah i hold it with my index finger up against the lip/handstop.
perhaps try loosening your grip? your shoulder is supposed to absorb the recoil, not your pump hand.

If you are able to shoot it that way then I'm either holding it wrong or I am a buttercup.......perhaps both. In any case, I'm going to try and put a vertical grip of some sort on it. Cheers !

IIRC when the Dlask 6.5 was being tested there were issues with the vertical forend causing binding when cycling the action - which makes sense since its no longer a sliding action but rather levering on the forend tube.
personally id be a lot more interested in an MCS forend. should be pretty straightforward to do. Remington refuses to sell to civilians, so just have the Chinese clone one of them.
