High comb sXs

[BenBhoy 4,706]

Evening gents,

Can anyone recommend a side by side with a high (monte carlo?) comb? What about an adjustable aftermarket stock fitted onto a sXs; would that ruin the whole appeal of the traditional gun? 

I've a skinny face & find most off the rack too low in comb but really want a sXs for game.

I have never seen a monte carlo stock on a sxs. 

Have you tried an AYA as these are certainly higher in the combe than English guns.

There are also people who will steam and bend a stock so that it fits you.

@BenBhoy I’ve got an AYA No 4 I never use it, very good condition I’ve been umming and arring as to getting rid of it also got about 500 no6 cartridges just sitting there, I’m admittedly useless with shotguns and I haven’t got the patience to learn I prefer rifles all day.

First pic is the original advert when I bought it about 3 plus years ago will give you an idea what they look like

How much drop at the comb and heel would you be looking for Ben?

I've never been measured/fit mate. But I've a 6mm gel pad on my o/u 686 and that's still too low for me.

Ok, if you measure the drop at comb and heel and including the gel pad I’ll see how it compares with my sbs’ ?
