Anybody have any advice or guidance on which aftermarket recoil pad(s) will fit or can be ground to fit a 2018 16 ga Citori White Lightning?

Tried searching but came up empty.

Will you be shortening the stock or leaving it factory?

Thank you both. I think I will have it shortened/installed by a gunsmith.

What I did was to find a second buttstock and have it modified, so I kept
the original intact for future sale with the shotgun.

I had a Pachmayr Decelerator installed on my 12ga Citori Superlight by a gunsmith. Looks nice and made the gun more pleasant to shoot. Did the same on my Dad's Japanese A5 12ga. Stocks were cut on both guns.

Seems like if you are going to cut the stock down any number of pads would work. The factory curved butt means you probably want to cut the butt straight one way or the other. I decided against this with my own gun as Browning won't warranty a stock that has been modified. Cracked stocks are a very common ailment for Citoris, especially the lightnings. I have had one already. If I had mounted an aftermarket recoil pad I would be out 400.00+ for a new stock when I sent it in for repair.
