Recoil-IQ® tested For shotguns & rifles Made in Australia

Measured.
Proven.
Softer recoil.

Knight IDS is a precision-engineered impact dissipation system built into a traditional recoil pad profile. No hydraulics, no pre-compression — just aerospace-grade internals that go to work only when recoil hits.

01 / Testing

Measured. Proven. Softer recoil.

Independently tested with Recoil-IQ®, a purpose-built instrumentation rig that captures peak force, rise time, and total impulse at the shoulder — not marketing claims.

02 / At rest

Rigid at rest. Active only under recoil.

The stock feels completely solid at the shoulder until the shot breaks. There's no mushy give, no spongy feel — the system only engages the instant recoil occurs.

03 / Mechanism

No hydraulics. No pre-compression.

No gas, no fluid, no preload to maintain or degrade over time. What you feel on day one is what you feel after ten thousand rounds.

04 / Fit

Traditional size. Revolutionary internals.

Fits standard stocks with no modification. Every component is precision CNC-machined from aerospace-grade alloy for strength that matches the profile you already trust.

Recoil-IQ® comparison

The recoil pulse, smoothed — not just softened.

Knight IDS doesn't just cushion impact, it reshapes the force curve. Peak force drops, the rise to peak takes longer, and total impulse at the shoulder falls — the difference between a sharp slap and a spread-out push.

IDS off — rubber pad

IDS on — Knight IDS

Force at the shoulder (lbf) plotted against time (ms) after the shot breaks. A lower, later, wider curve means a gentler push instead of a sharp hit.

What the results mean

Lower peak force

Less punch delivered to the shoulder on every shot.

Slower force build

More time to the peak means a noticeably smoother feel.

Longer rise duration

Force builds gradually instead of arriving as a shock.

Less total force delivered

Reduced positive impulse measured directly at the shoulder.
