The stock of some Silver shotguns can be adjusted for length of pull
by adding or removing spacers to the rear of the stock. Each spacer
extends length of pull ¼" and a maximum of three spacers can be
added with the screws provided to extend length of pull ¾". With
longer screws (not provided), more than three spacers can be added
to further extend length of pull.
Spacers can be ordered through your Browning dealer or by calling
our Customer Service Department at (800) 322-4626.

before performing Adjustment procedures, plAce the sAfety
in the on sAfe position. open the Action And mAke certAin your
shotgun is completely unloAded. keep the muZZle pointed in A
sAfe direction. fAilure to follow these wArnings could result
in serious injury or deAth.
1 Use a #2 cross tip or Phillips screwdriver to remove the recoil pad
at the end of the buttstock (Figure 15). Place a small amount of
petroleum jelly on the screw access slits on the top and bottom of
the rear of the buttstock to prevent damaging the recoil pad. Insert
the screwdriver into each of the two access holes. Make certain the
tip of the screwdriver engages the head of the screw. Turn the
screw counterclockwise until the screw is completely loose from
the stock. When both screws are free, remove the recoil pad.
2 Add or subtract spacers to fit your firearm to your specifications
(Figure 16). After making an adjustment hold the shotgun to your
shoulder to determine if the new length feels comfortable.
Remember to always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction,
with the “safety” in the on safe position and make certain the
shotgun is completely unloaded.
3 When you are satisfied with the length of pull, start the screws
through the pad and spacer(s) into the holes in the stock.
4 Attach the recoil pad to the stock using the screwdriver. Turn the
screws clockwise to tighten. Do not overtighten the screws.

important restrictions must be observed:
