Title: Hogue overmold for Mossy 500
Post by: brokenvet on September 07, 2015, 11:40:33 AM: I have an older Mossberg 500 that has a very hard butt pad. I was thinking of replacing the wood stock and forearm with the Hogue synthetic overmold.

Anyone use the Hogue? How soft is the pad?

Thanks

Thanks for the input.
