There is a 1" rubber extension for $7 at Tapco. But it may make things long for the kid, so how about a SAR2? Never have too many AKs :)

Only slightly off topic - I'm looking for a recoil pad-buttstock extender for a Romak III if anyone knows of one.

I saw that item at Tapco and I think it's more of an extension than a recoil pad. If it's soft rubber it may lessen the blow a little, but you screw the metal butt plate over it and your shoulder is still getting hit by a metal piece. |

It is a semi-soft rubber. It screws on over top of your butt plate.

Do you have one of these? Does it work OK? Can you take the butt plate off and just screw it to the end of the stock?

obershutze is right in that the rubber ain't that soft. I put them on my AK's, but it was more for extension than for recoil purposes. You could take off the buttplate, but the recoil pad doesn't fit exactly even with the stock, so it might look funny. There won't be a big difference whether you leave the metal buttpad on or take it off.
With Tapco's pricing structure and shipping costs - it's probably better to order 10 and then sell off the ones you don't need to your friends. |

I'm thinking of going over to Walmart and just get a cheapie and put a disc sander on my drill and just go at it. See what happens.
I was just wondering if anyone else had tried to size one to fit. The butt stock end is pretty small on the SAR. |

You want the GP recoil pad, K-var has the Bulg version, part number AK-005B. www.k-varcorp.com/buttplate.html Don't know if it will fit a PSL, but could probably trimmed to fit. I think the version Tapco sells if for chinese stocks. The GP pad will fit about any stock version. Dave |

Appreciate all the replies.
LooseCannon - I did see the GP recoil pad, but I couldn't figure out where the strap goes. I think I found one at egunparts that is just a little bit bigger than the end of the stock, I'll just have to file or sand it some. I was just looking for a regular old recoil pad that screws to the rifle butt. |

Damn thing looks like a maxi pad for your rifle.

My thoughts exactly!!!
Don't really care for the looks of it. |

What do you do with the strap on that thing???
Doesn't it just slip over the end of the stock? I can't figure out where you'd put the strap! Logistar |

I have one I'm not going to use. I bought it in April and never installed it. IM me, I'll give you a smoking deal.

On a fixed stock, it just presses on. Believe the strap is for the AKS-74 folding stock. However, I've seen it used with fixed stocks by running it around the sling swivel. I cut slots on my stock to run the strap through. It's a plastic stock without the cleaning kit compartment. Dave |
