Recently purchased a Diablo 12ga pistol. I have been an nra gun owner for over 45 yrs and just purchased my first muzzle loader.
I bought one of those and later the AR stock adapter. However, no matter where you shoot and try a hot load ( in my case 100 grains of XXX Pyrodex under a lead ball) be careful. At the time I was pretty new to black powder and for some dumb reason I was thinking that the recoil couldn't be "that bad" compared to smokeless and did not seat the stock tightly to my shoulder. That combination of a very light gun for caliber and a hot load of powder left me with a very sore shoulder.
