I have one of the slip on leather pads also, but, on some of my short guns, it has a squirmy feel that I don't care for. It doesn't fit tightly on all my guns.
Then you have the wrong size pad..........
if it moves at all.......Both of mine fit extremely tight on the 25+ guns of different makes that I have used them on.......very firm indeed, but I only bought two of the
small size ones as I had been told the other sizes were way too big indeed......and all my guns have uncut original factory wood ........and I am tall as well.......small is the only size that fits firmly IMO..........
I use these, too, and have for many years. However, I use the Kick-Killer brand (they look just like them and are very good quality) with the lace-up feature as opposed to the velcro flap. The laces let you tighten them down really tight if you need to. Mine have never moved with me, but I don't switch them around much, just leav'em on the guns that need'em.
Problem is, Doug, he said he needs 1 1/2" added. These only add roughly 1/2". I don't know how well they would work with a 1" spacer inside them.
