Comb riser/raiser

I went for something a little more permanent. I sanded the stock to remove the finish, rough formed a riser to be the correct height and shape and then epoxied it directly to the stock. After letting it cure for a day I sanded it smooth with the stock, sealed the wood and camouflaged the whole gun and it turned out very nicely.

I did similar to what a few others mentioned. I used an old camping pad that wasn't being used anymore...cut a few strips from one end and taped them on. I'll post a pic later.

I had a dot on a gun years ago, had to add a pad under an elastic shell holder to raise it.  Hated the set up and took it off after a season.

The burris speed bead set up is sweet.  Though I am running rifle sights now.

I added camo duct tape to it shortly after this. I have $0 invested in this...all of the stuff used was just laying around the house. Works great for me.

I'm probably going to be in the same boat going back to just the bead.  We shall see....I'm not much for change, but thought I would give it the ol' "college try".

Put a Beartooth padded riser on my little 20 gauge. Helps soften recoil too.

I use one of these on one of my long-range rigs.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.
