Description
If your 12-gauge Mossberg has been rattling your teeth and bruising your shoulder, this is one of the simplest upgrades you can make. The Limbsaver Precision-Fit Recoil Pad replaces the factory buttpad on 5-3/16-inch synthetic stocks and gets to work knocking down the sting of every shot. It runs on Limbsaver's NAVCOM material, a proprietary rubber compound that soaks up vibration and dissipates a wide range of frequencies rather than just cushioning the impact. The result is a noticeable drop in what you feel against your shoulder, with the company citing recoil reduction of up to 70 percent.
What the Mossberg 10201 Pad Fits
This one is cut specifically for Mossberg synthetic stocks measuring 5-3/16 inches, which covers a wide swath of the lineup including the 500, 535, 590, 835, 930 (excluding the 930 SPX), and the Maverick 88 in 12 gauge. Because it is a precision-fit design, it lands close to the stock profile without the grinding and sanding that grind-to-fit pads require. Before you install, it is worth measuring the rear of your stock against the template so you know it lines up, and note that the pad adds about an inch to your length of pull.
Why the Precision-Fit Pad Earns Its Keep
Beyond softening the blow, the pad is built with anti-muzzle-jump technology that helps settle the gun back on target faster for your follow-up shot. The outer surface is a no-slip texture that keeps the buttstock planted in your shoulder pocket even in wet, cold, or otherwise miserable weather, which is exactly when you want that grip working for you. It is made in the USA out of that same durable rubber compound, so it holds up season after season.
Installation is about as painless as gun work gets. In most cases you unscrew the old pad and thread this one on using your existing hardware. Certain screw-hole spacings call for the included adapter plate, so check your stock layout first and you will be shooting softer in a matter of minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Mossberg models does the 10201 recoil pad fit?
It is made for Mossberg synthetic stocks that measure 5-3/16 inches, which covers a lot of ground including the 500, 535, 590, 835, and 930 (but not the 930 SPX), plus the Maverick 88 in 12 gauge. Since it is precision-fit rather than universal, measure the back of your stock against the template before installing to confirm it matches up.
Do I need to grind or sand this pad to install it?
No. Unlike grind-to-fit pads, the Precision-Fit design is already shaped for the Mossberg stock profile, so it drops right on. Most folks just unscrew the factory pad and thread this one on with the existing hardware.
Will the Limbsaver pad change my length of pull?
Yes, this pad adds roughly one inch to your length of pull. That is worth keeping in mind if you already have a stock that feels a touch long, but for many shooters that extra length actually improves the fit.
What is NAVCOM and how does it cut recoil?
NAVCOM stands for Noise and Vibration Control Material, Limbsaver's proprietary rubber compound. Instead of simply padding the impact, it absorbs and dissipates a broad range of vibration frequencies, which is what lets the pad take the edge off felt recoil and reduce muzzle jump for quicker follow-up shots.
