WTT NEW Mossberg 500 Adult Butt Stock for Youth Butt Stock

What can I say? I have short arms - imagine T-Rex trying to manage a 14" LOP.

I just got a Model 500, 20 gauge with a 18.5" barrel for "around the house" and the LOP is way too long. I didn't buy a youth model because this one was exactly what I was looking for in all other aspects and I somehow got it pretty cheap compared to what I saw at many places. I'm looking for the black synthetic stock that is shaped like the wooden one, not collapsible, not pink, no camo - just the plain black one.

If you have a young-un who's grown out of his or her youth stock, maybe we can fix each other up. I need to take at least an inch off this thing and an inch and a half would be the berries.

Thanks.

I'll look around. I had a 500 20ga stock I took an inch or so off of for my niece. Think I gave it to a friend for his boy years ago, but I'll check a few spots.

Thanks, Freebullet. If you find it and need an adult one, great. If I don't find a swap, I'll just be "adjusting" this one anyway. My arms aren't too short to run a saw and I've practiced on everything from hollow plastic to custom walnut.

Well, I found a long lost 12ga 500 stock. Looks like the 20ga was given away. I have a 12 stock on one of the 20's now, it fits ok but, is a little to wide at the tang. If you want the 12 stock it's yours for the shipping cost.

I just logged on to report that just landed a deal for a new 20 gauge youth stock for $15 plus shipping. Not nearly the generous offer you've made but I committed already.

Thank you so much for such a generous offer. Very indicative of the type of folks who hang out here.

I appreciate the generosity.:)

Nice, that's probably about what they cost to ship nowadays. Yes, very nice bunch here.
