The Chisel Machining stock for the Beretta 1301 shotgun is packed with features that can make your LTT 1301 even more shootable and user-friendly! Adjustability The Chisel Machine stock's length of pull is fully adjustable in 1/4″ increments and can be made shorter than the factory and Magpul stock, or extended to a maximum length of 14", to accommodate for different shooting styles and body types. The padded Kick-Eez cheek piece is adjustable for height and cant, and the Kick-Eez recoil pad can be raised or lowered to suit your preference. Optics Mount The Chisel Machine stock has an integrated mount for an RMR-footprint optic. Moving the optic to the stock behind the receiver has multiple benefits: -Clears the top of the receiver for smoother bolt-open reloads from a side saddle -Makes finding the dot even more intuitive when rapidly mounting the shotgun -Gives a large field of view through the optic, which makes it easier to track the dot in recoil when shooting in a compromised position or with high-recoil loads. Accessory Compatibility The Chisel Machine stock is compatible with a variety of aftermarket accessories. It includes a Magpul K2 pistol grip, but it is compatible with all standard AR-15 pistol grips. The stock also has two unlimited rotation steel QD sockets that can be configured between six possible mounting holes, so that you can run a sling however you like. Finally, the stock is also compatible with the Chisel Machine Quiver, which allows you to carry an additional 5 rounds on the stock itself. Product Includes: -1 Chisel Machine shotgun stock -RMR mounting plate -Kick-Eez recoil pad and cheek pad -1 Magpul K2 pistol grip -Bolt recoil buffer -Thread-locker Product Details Compatible with: Beretta 1301 and A400 Length of Pull: 12"-14" (can be made even shorter with an aftermarket Magpul PRS style 1/2" recoil pad from Kick-Eez) Weight: 2.0 lbs Material: Hard anodized 6061 aluminum (machined from billet) Available separately or installed on your LTT 1301.
