Please note: I am deliberately NOT mentioning a brand name here, because that will immediately sidetrack all discussion into arguments about that and other brand names. This is about personal tastes and aesthetics, which are not unique matters to any particular make, market niche, or model.
So...
Okay, over the last year or so I lost a LOT of weight, about 90 pounds. I went from a pretty beefy guy to downright lean (I look a lot more like my dad now.)
But now I'm finding some of my long guns actually kinda hurt to shoot. I never had this problem before, and I wonder if the "fat pad," for...

I've never met a serious anti-gun type who had the required knowledge and equipment to do something like this, even with just...
