Six spacers (Figure 2) have been included with your
Super X2 Sporting shotgun. These spacers fit between the
buttstock and receiver, allowing adjustments to the drop at
comb, heel and cast on/off. Each spacer is labeled/stamped
for what each does. One of these six spacers, the neutral
spacer (No. 2), is already installed on your shotgun.
