Does it utilize gel-pad technology like competitors? Plan to use on Benelli 12ga shotgun.

No, it does not have either gel-pads permanently inside of it nor does it include gel-pad packs that can be inserted into it. Mine is currently on a 7.5mm Swiss K-31 military rifle, and it does a good job of both dampening the recoil and spreading it out over the pad.

The model I have doesn't-in the pad is a honeycomb structure of rubber, arranged with the open ends forward and back, which deforms between the recoiling and your shoulder.

You answered your own question! Should reduce felt recoil a bit but be aware that the cheap material they use as a buffer will mushroom and hang up on your spring after 3 boxes of ammo!!!!!

probably not. the internals of semi-auto shotguns are far different from pumps. I could be wrong, I'm sure Mesa-Tacticals website would have more info.

I am not certain. I am still getting to know a bit more about what gel pads work. I wish I could be of better help.

No, the sand causes friction that the spring cannot overcome and the trigger will remain open. A texture gun is made for heavier bodied (thicker) material. Use a paint spray gun for paint and waxes.

Nope. This is a great pad but won't work with the PRS, which is a shame because the PRS really needs better padding when using it with 308.

The pad will work equally well for a right hand or left hand shooter. Padding is adjustable and is the same on both sides. This makes it a little bulky on the the side opposite the cheek-weld but I have not noticed this when shooting.

Yes. That's the exact set up I have. I mounted this and it have a huge difference. Without the pad, the recoil was pretty harsh since the rifle is so light.

Yes, the "laserlyte system" is much better than the "sirt trainer/pistol" primarily because, as indicated by "C Wigley" above and/or below, your're practicing with the same weapon which you are actually going to be shooting; however, I must respectfully take exception with his recommendation to NOT buy the laserlyte target ... if for no other reason than the laserlyte target provides lasting "feedback" to study/evaluate regarding the actual point of impact that you just can't get from other fixed targets which he uses; therefore, I HIGHLY recommend using BOTH the cartridge & target. Just sayin' . . . to each his own! ;&gt;) Pricing has noticeably dropped since the laserlyte products were initially introduced on the market! - Good Luck!

Not well. Yes it engages the side bevel of the Picatinny rail using friction but it does NOT take advantage of the recoil slots. Fine if you clamp it down real tight but it will invaribly loosen over time especially with the recoil of a 12 ga. shotgun firing heavy loads.

Paul, I have some close up pictures of this on my Benelli Supernova Tactical. If you send an email to trandall02@gmail.com I'll send you the pictures of it mounted and you can make a judgement call.

Not a good choice. I bought a stock that has a internal spring system. Firm enough to steady the shot but does relieve the recoil. I have it on an AK-47, but I think it would be more effective for a shotgun. Not cheap. Over $100 but not cheaply made.

I looked and couldn't find the Part number 306495 listed by Remington. What type of weapon are you trying to find a recoil pad for? Send me the Model number ie. Model 700 or 870 etc. I'll also need to know if it has a wooden stock or synthetic and if it is a standard length or youth model. Give me that information and I can help you out.

I was told the device actually makes the gel harder ... besides drys faster. FWIW

It's much more tricky on my Glock than my beretta. I don't like the fact that the laser stays on once the slide has been cycled. I question whether or not I have it installed correctly. You might want to research that on LaserMax's website. But I must say. It is super simple on a Beretta 92f

Fits good on my Mosin 91-30, I don't even use the additional inserts because the pad alone works fine. It does have a little shift but nothing you'd notice if properly holding and firing. The gel filled pad is much better then the rubber pads imo.

There good for smaller guns. It said ten pounds on the box, but my things are much heavier. I bought two but decided to just get a couple stronger ones for shot guns, rifles, and just badass desert eagles. For a Walter or a 380, perfect.....but beretta 9mm or higher...get a stronger. Now I never tested my glocks, but I have a g23 with extended clips, two taped together with a nice light and laser attached....so I never tried. But what r you working with?
