Description
The Limbsaver 10401 is a Classic Precision-Fit recoil pad built to drop right onto the Benelli Super Black Eagle and its close cousins. Instead of a generic slip-on or a grind-to-fit blank, this one is molded to match the shape of the Benelli stock, so it seats up clean and looks like it came from the factory. It swaps in for your existing pad and works whether you've got a synthetic, wood, or laminate stock.
The real work happens in the material. Limbsaver uses their NAVCOM compound, a vibration-dampening rubber that spreads recoil energy across a wide range of frequencies and knocks felt recoil down by up to 70 percent. That translates to real comfort on a long day breaking clays or chasing waterfowl with heavy 3.5-inch loads, and less of that flinch that creeps in after a few boxes. The pad also carries anti-muzzle jump technology that helps settle the gun back down quicker, so your second shot gets on target faster. The non-slip surface keeps the gun planted in your shoulder pocket even in wet, cold, nasty weather.
How the Limbsaver 10401 Fits Your Benelli
This pad is designed to cover the Benelli 12-gauge lineup including the SBE 1 and 2, Sport 1 and 2, Nova, Super Sport, Cordoba, and the M1 and M2. Because factory stocks can vary slightly batch to batch, it's smart to print Limbsaver's free fit template off their site and check it against your stock before you install.
Installing the Precision-Fit Pad
Installation is a two-screw job in most cases. You pull your old pad, line this one up, and drive it down using the factory screws and holes. It adds about 1 inch to your length of pull, which is worth knowing if your gun already fits you well. A little gun oil on the screwdriver makes threading the screws through the rubber a lot easier. These pads are engineered and made in the USA, and Limbsaver has been at the recoil game since 1991.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Limbsaver 10401 fit my Benelli?
It's shaped for the Benelli 12-gauge family, including the Super Black Eagle 1 and 2, Sport 1 and 2, Nova, Super Sport, Cordoba, M1, and M2. Because factory stocks can vary slightly from run to run, Limbsaver recommends checking their free printable fit template against your stock before installing. That quick step saves headaches and confirms the pad lines up with your screw holes.
How much recoil does this pad actually reduce?
The NAVCOM material is designed to knock down felt recoil by up to 70 percent by absorbing vibration and spreading energy across a broad frequency range. You'll feel the biggest difference with heavy 3-inch and 3.5-inch waterfowl loads or a long session on the clays course. It also helps tame muzzle jump so the gun settles faster for follow-up shots.
Is it hard to install the Limbsaver 10401?
Not at all. You remove your factory pad, line this one up, and drive it on using the existing stock screws and holes, usually a two-screw job. Running a little gun oil on your screwdriver makes it easier to push the screws through the rubber, and now and then a shooter finds they need to reuse their original screws or grab slightly different ones if the threads don't match up perfectly.
Does this pad change how the gun fits me?
Yes, it adds about 1 inch to your length of pull. If your Benelli already fits you well, keep that in mind since it will lengthen the reach to the trigger a touch. For most people that extra length is comfortable, but it's good to be aware of before you mount up.
