Is it SASS-kosher to put a trap pad on your shotgun, or curve the butt?

[Begle1]

I've been using an 1887 and would like to cut down the stock and put some sort of curve onto the end to make it easier to hold against my shoulder with just my support hand.

Would it be against the rules to either A. install a curved rubber "trap"-style recoil pad onto the buttstock, B. cut a crescent shape into the buttstock, like off a carbine or C. install a lace-on leather recoil pad that had some sort of devil ears underneath it?

SASS handbook rules are fairly specific.  A Recoil Pad or Butt Pad must conform to those that were available in the periods we portray.  A "Lace On" Butt Pad or Cover is also acceptable.  The handbook does NOT make any stipulation of what is "Under" said lace on cover.  Making it resemble that of the cover for a crescent rifle should be acceptable.

I use a Kick Killer lace-up pad. I don't use it for the recoil reduction I use it to increase the length of pull to get the correct sight picture.

You can use the slip on pads to help with recoil, shape or LOP. If you are concerned with the looks, put a leather cover over it.
