DIY RA Loading Butt

Hey Guys,
After many years of shooting my beloved RA 110, I have finally come up with a homemade loading butt for it. A buddy of mine gifted me an old Omer Excalibur that had a rubber loading butt that is removable. Took it off and with some finesse I was able to fit it onto the RA butt. It has a solid rubber feel that makes it easier to load the gun. I took it one step further and grabbed one of my wife's old navy flip flops and cut out a chunk to match the shape of the omer pad. Then all that was left was to take 2 zip ties and attach it to the butt as well (check out the pics attached). Haven't tested it out on the water yet but it feels pretty solid and definitely makes loading it a little easier. Just wanted to throw this out for anyone else who may be thinking about this modification.

Note: I was not able to find the omer excalibur butt for sale online but saw that spearfishingworld.com sells the cayman rubber loading butt. It may work as well.
