First the image appears lighter than expected. True Blue is what you get. Difficult to reposition once it's been in place for a week. What ever that orange lineing is made of is pliable but really grips. However it looks like a quality product on the shot gun. It smooths out the swing and absorbs a minute bit of lift and recoil. Of course weight has a direct relationship in reducing foot pounds of force. The question is how much is enough. Ofsetting my mercury in the stock balance is nice. Happy with the purchase!
