If there's one thing that affects almost every shooter, its recoil. Good shots have learned to better manage it, while novice plinkers flinch in anticipation, sending shots veering wildly off course. Whether an experienced marksman or a new shooter however, chances are you'd like to feel that rifle bite a little less. If so, FalconStrike is here to help. The company has created a multi-fit recoil-reduction pad, utilizing hydraulic-dampening technology borrowed from the aerospace industry, designed to help shooters increase their accuracy and endurance, while lessening any flinch response.

"There are thousands of stocks on the market, which is why we created the new multi-fit pad. We've eliminated the time it takes to figure out what size of recoil pad you need. Now, you select your type of stock (Wood, Synthetic, AR or Junior) to get the benefits of less recoil energy when you shoot. No measuring, no grinding and no hassle,” says Martin Gaudet, president and inventor of FalconStrike.

FalconStrike's hydraulic dampening technology works to match the contour of your shoulder when the gun fires. The elastic bladder contains a high-performance shock absorber for maximum energy reduction, which FalconStrike claims will result in: 80-percent less recoil energy, 35-percent less muzzle lift, 25-percent less peak force and 35-percent less rock back.
