KICK-EEZ All Purpose Grind-to-Fit Recoil Pad - Screw-On Sorbothane

In this review the KICK-EEZ All Purpose Grind-to-Fit Recoil Pad is judged primarily on recoil reduction and fit flexibility; it is aimed at shooters who want an effective screw-on pad that stays put and soaks up heavy kick. The pad uses a Sorbothane compound formulated for shock absorption, and the review finds that its ability to reduce gun kickback by a large margin is the single biggest reason to buy. Installation requires cutting or grinding to fit, so some basic tools and patience are necessary for a finished look.

Key Features

• Sorbothane material: The pad uses a specially formulated compound that absorbs recoil and significantly reduces felt kick for more comfortable shooting sessions.
• Screw-on design: The pad mounts with screws to any buttstock, preventing slippage or loss during use and providing a secure attachment compared with slip-on pads.
• Grind-to-fit: You can grind or trim the pad to achieve the desired thickness and profile so it fits a wide range of shotgun and rifle stocks.
• Broad compatibility: The pad is compatible with many common makes and models, so it suits shooters with Winchester, Remington, Mossberg and similar brands.
• Made in USA: Sourced and manufactured domestically, which may matter to buyers preferring US-made components.

Who It's For

The pad is well suited to hunters, clay shooters and range regulars who experience substantial recoil and want a durable solution that can be permanently mounted. It benefits anyone comfortable using basic tools to grind material and shape the pad to their stock and shoulder geometry.

It is less appropriate for someone who wants a tool-free, instant fit or a reversible slip-on pad; buyers who need a perfectly contoured factory fit without trimming should look at other pre-shaped options.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Material quality: Reviewers report the Sorbothane soaks up recoil effectively and feels solid under shoulder pressure.
• Secure mounting: The screw-on method prevents slipping and keeps the pad in place during repeated use.
• Custom fit: Grind-to-fit capability allows trimming to exact thickness and shape for improved ergonomics.

Cons

• Requires trimming: Achieving a neat final fit takes tools and time, and some users may find grinding messy or imprecise.
• Appearance after modification: Although reviewers noted it still looks good, heavy grinding can change the finished look compared with a molded pad.
