I'm sure this has been before, any suggestions on what might fit as a butt pad once this is done to an 870 stock? Is there something out there that can be screwed on and fit flush? Or am I stuck with the over molded wrap type pad?

pretty sure limbsaver makes the grindable/sandable pads for just such a project.

eta: yep link

I almost went this route for my 590a1 but ended up opting for a youth stock from the factory

Yup that's what I was going to suggest, buy a youth model stock and your set

Youth model sounds like a decent option, saves me the mess of cleaning all the dust up.

Thanks guys.

Just about any rubber pad can be cut to fit by a gunsmith.

Will the youth stock fit an 870 P?

Yes if its an 870 youth stock for a large received gun. The stock off the smaller framed 20 gauge will not work.

OP is you can find a youth stock that fits and is teh LOP you want go that route.  I just put wood on my 20" 590 and cut the LOP by about 1.5"  I used a grind to fit Limbsaver. pad whic was wnderful but getting the cut straight was a challenge and the recoil pad grinding was a dirty pita.  I am happy with my result but in hindsight if I were to do it again I would get a youth stock and Limbsaver that was made for the youth stock.
