- PROS

- direct fit to most Beretta Field guns that use a 5" long pad
- CONS
- they are not cheap.
These pads are a direct replacement for Beretta "field" (non Sporting) shotguns. These are the 5.0" pads. The Sporting pads are larger, 5-3/8" long. Also, the Beretta Micro-Core pads for Field guns come in .X9 increments - like .39", .59", .79". The Sporting pads come in .X1 increments - such as .51". .71", etc... They are good pads - softer and more effective than the older pads. If you have an older Beretta gun, you can likely upgrade to the Micro-Core, and increase or decrease the length of pull (LOP) while doing so, if you want. The LOP is measured from the center of the front of the trigger to the center of the rear of the recoil pad. So if your LOP seems to short, you can buy a thicker pads to possibly increase LOP. Also, Beretta makes 1/4" spacers for Field guns, but not their Sporting guns. These spacers are 5" long and go between the pad and wood stock. They are used to increase the LOP by a larger amount.
I needed a thinner pad. I duck hunt hard and the factory pad that came with my A400 has had no problems, but wanted a thinner one (I'm not a bug guy) to more easily shoulder the gun when wearing a few heavy layers in the blind. Good product
