Description
Recoil fatigue is one of those things that sneaks up on you. The first few rounds feel fine, but after a box or two of stout loads your shoulder is ready to call it a day. The Allen Recoil Eraser II Slip-On Pad tackles that head-on with a soft silicone sleeve that soaks up the kick and keeps you comfortable enough to stay on target shot after shot. Allen rates the design to knock down felt recoil by a noticeable margin, which is a big deal when you're sighting in a magnum rifle or running clays with a semi-auto.
What Makes the Recoil Eraser II Different
Instead of a hard rubber pad you have to screw on, this one is molded from recoil-absorbing silicone that stretches right over your existing buttstock. No tools, no drilling, no trip to the gunsmith. You just work it on, seat it square against the butt, and you're ready to shoot. It adds a small amount to your length of pull, so it also helps folks who need a touch more reach on a short stock.
Getting the Right Fit With the Medium Pad
The medium version measures roughly 5.75 by 1.75 inches and is built to fit a wide range of medium stocks found on most rifles and semi-auto shotguns. Allen prints a size gauge right on the back of the package, so before you buy you can hold your buttstock up to the diagram and confirm you're grabbing the correct size. That little step saves a lot of guesswork and keeps the pad snug rather than sloppy.
At just under a tenth of a pound, the Recoil Eraser II won't throw off the balance or handling of your gun. It's an easy, low-cost upgrade that makes range days and hunts a whole lot friendlier on the shoulder, and it comes off just as easily if you want to swap it to another firearm.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Recoil Eraser II attach to my gun?
It's a slip-on sleeve, so it simply stretches over the buttstock by hand. There are no screws, adhesives, or gunsmithing involved. You just work it on until it seats flat against the butt, and it's ready to shoot.
How do I know if the medium size will fit my stock?
The medium measures about 5.75 by 1.75 inches and covers most medium-sized rifle and semi-auto shotgun stocks. Allen prints a size gauge right on the package so you can match it to your buttstock before installing. If your stock is on the larger side, the large version (18429) may be a better fit.
Will this pad change my length of pull?
Yes, it adds roughly 3/4 inch to your length of pull. For a lot of people that's a welcome bonus, especially if a stock feels a touch short. If you're already at your ideal reach, keep that small increase in mind when mounting the gun.
Is the Recoil Eraser II good for hard-kicking guns?
It's built for exactly that. The silicone material soaks up a good portion of the felt recoil, making it a smart pickup for magnum rifles, slug guns, and semi-auto shotguns you shoot a lot. It's a simple, affordable way to make long sessions easier on your shoulder.
