WOW old mossy, thank you so much for the thorough answer and information. I will research all you have shared. Looks like this is something I can do myself. I appreciate the time you took to share with me. Thanks again!
Mossberg makes a "bantam" youth-sized model you could probably find a stock from. Check gunbroker.com. Alternately, adjustable (usually with pistol grip) stocks are readily available IF legal in your state...
Thanks Bobster. I guess I'm a little odd. I did put an ATI adjustable pistol grip stock on my 88. I took it shooting and really did not like it. I want to change back to the standard stock, but with a less LOP. I can look at finding a Bantam size and I am considering shortening it myself.
Have you looked at the Hogue 12" LOP stock? I run them on my 590A1 and 590...
These tuck into the shoulder much better than the factory stocks and I don't feel like I have to reach for the forend. They can be had for around $60 and won't require any modification...
Good Morning, Lazy Eyed Sniper,
As a matter of fact, yes, I was looking at those last night on the web trying to find the best price! Looks like something that I am looking for. It's either that or slicing some off my present stock. Great pics, by the way.
I think you will like it. I have one on my 870. If does make it a little short when wearing just a t-shirt (and are used to a full length stock) unless I stand more square to the target but it is fast to get up and works really good when wearing more layers.
Thanks MikeD. I am anticipating using it. I do not have long arms, so this will work for me. I felt like I did not have the control I wanted with the standard stock. I tried an adjustable pistol grip stock and the length was good, but I did not enjoy the pistol grip. I like the feeling of having the shotgun more compact. It fits me and my size better.
