Just pulled the trigger on an M82a1.  By the time I get it out to the range it'll be in the 30's outside.  I'd like something soft/padded to rest my cheek against instead of the bare steel.  I know the M107's come with some kind of padding for the cheek and I've seen guys add what looks like moleskin there.  Any suggestions on what specifically tends to work well AND not peel off in time?

Thanks!

Barrett offers a Snap over the upper cheek pad.

I made my own from an old mouse pad. Cut out to the shape you want and DAP glue it in place. Did mine about 20 years ago. It's about time to cut it off and replace it when I strip it to have it ceracoated
I hated going to weddings. All the grandmas would poke me and say "You're next". They stopped that when I started doing it to them at funerals.

I recently bought the Tact Wrap cheek pad for my M99.  They also offer them for 82s, 107s, etc.

The fit and finish are great, and I can highly recommend them.

This looks like something you might as well add to your cart ;-)

Not a fan of the stuck ons.  Would rather have one that's removable to start out with.

Thanks though.

I have a custom one i had made, and the Barrett one... They are both ok..   Ended up with one from a Lin Schryver that he had made out of thermoplastic...  Its my go to now..

call Brian Potempa at 414 588-5198..   I think he ended up with the extras when Lin shut down.



This is the custom one I had made..  It takes different foam strips inside to bring the cheek to the proper placement..
