I put on on my 1895 after a few trips to the range. Yes, the limbsaver is good technology and does reduce felt recoil significantly.demented said:Can anyone tell if these do much good? I had a grind to fit installed on one of my 3.5" 12's and boy does it hurt! I never fired it before, so if Limbsavers ads are true about 40% recoil reduction, then it would have completely tore my shoulder off before it was put on.
