CompStock Installation Instructions Shooting Tips & Techniques Continued
ATTENTION: Read and follow all instructions and warnings prior to installation and/or firing a
CompStock equipped shotgun.
Take extra time to review the shooting tips & techniques
section of this manual (Page 5). If you are at all unsure of your ability to install your CompStock
safely, please seek the services of a competent gunsmith.
WARNING : Before beginning stock installation, make sure that the shotgun is UNLOADED.
Carefully check the chamber and magazine tube making both visual and touch verification.
TOOLS REQUIRED:
• Socket Wrench
• Long Extension and Sockets
• Medium Phillips Screwdriver
• Large Flat Blade Screwdriver
INSTALLATION STEPS:
1. Remove original stock. Refer to manufacturer’s instructions for the best method to remove
stock. Normally the pad is held in place by two Phillips screws and the stock is held on by one
bolt. Remove the pad by unscrewing the Phillips screws and remove the stock bolt to free the
stock from the shotgun. (Fig. 1) Remove any metal spacers that remain.
2. Attach new CompStock butt stock in reverse manner utilizing a socket wrench, long extension
and appropriate size socket (Remington - 7/16", Mossberg, Winchester & F/N - 1/2") . Use any
enclosed bolts and washers to attach the new CompStock butt stock. (Attention Mossberg own-
ers: utilize original factory bolt with the enclosed washer) Tighten bolt with a moderate to high
degree of torque. (Fig. 2)

Recommended Thumb placement when shooting the CompStock
By placing the strong hand thumb on top of the stock as shown above, rather than over
it, contact will be avoided.
To avoid contact after recoil, maintain at least two inches of distance between cheek
and strong hand thumb.
WARNING: Due to the inherent “travel” of the shotgun during recoil, a scope with-
out proper eye relief will come back and hit you! Be sure to allow liberal eye relief to
prevent an injury and do not let anyone shoot your shotgun without checking for prop-
er eye clearance.
NOTE: When using CompStock in conjunction with SureFire® and similar forends, it is
advisable to keep the weak hand back at least an inch from the lamp housing bulge. This
will avoid the possibility of recoil impact on the fore part of the weak hand when the
shotgun is fired.
