I did not purchase this pad with the hopes of reducing recoil. Honestly, an AR-15 really does not need any recoil reduction. I purchased this pad to add to overall LOP, protect the buttstock, and increase comfort. This pad delivered on all three points. The install: slip it on in about five seconds. It is a solid piece of rubber (not very squishy). My only concern is if it will stay on. I shoot my AR from a bench or in three gun comps, so I doubt that I will have any issues. It might come off if you plan on running around the jungle with it. Great buy.
Pros: Great value
Cons: Will it stay on???
