I just got the Knoxx Spec Ops stock system for my Maverick 88 shotgun and I gotta say wow!
I don't know about anyone else, but shooting more than 10 or so slugs or magnum loads in a synthetic stocked shotgun isn't a whole lot of fun.
But after installing the Knoxx, my brother-in-law and I spent an afternoon blasting away with everything we could lay our hands on from 6 shot to 3 inch mag slugs. In total I would venture to say that we went through about 5-25 round boxes of birdshot and 3-15 round boxes of 1oz. 2 3/4 slugs and were amazed at how effective the Knoxx was.
Felt recoil was compareable to a .22 lr in my opinion and the B-I-L said that he might go as far as comparing it to a 30-30.
Either way, neither shooter felt any soreness or discomfort that would usually accompany a shooting session like the one mentioned earlier.
Also, my seven year old heard what a fuss dad and Unc were making and wanted to see what the big deal was. So a single round of factory no.6 was loaded and I held my breath as she hefted the shotgun, steadied and fired. She handed it back and said that it wasn't so bad and it was just louder than her gun. ( A cricket .22lr. Pink of course)
I don't know about anybody else, but I am impressed.

. Was afraid to look down at the trigger guard thinking something bad happened to my finger. You know when you hurt yourself but the pain is delayed for a split second. Luck was on my side that day. Sent it back to Cabelas,then went back to wood. Nice concept but not for me........Joe
