ABSTRACT:
A recoil pad for a shoulder gun such as a rifle or shotgun, including a body of elastomeric cushioning material to be received between the buttstock of the gun and a user'shoulder, and an insert member formed of a material harder than the elastomeric material and embedded within a recess in the back of the elastomeric body near its upper end. The pad may also include an attachment plate secured to the front of the elastomeric body. The insert member has a rear surface which engages the user's clothing at a location above an aligned rear surface of the elastomeric body, to reduce the friction at the location of the insert and facilitate sliding of the recoil pad upwardly adjacent the clothing to firing position. The elastomeric body has a portion extending upwardly in front of the harder insert to be received between that insert and the buttstock of the gun and cushion the transmission of recoil forces from the gun to the insert.
