I'm looking to buy a Knight LK-II muzzleloader for my 6 year old grandson. This model has a short 22" barrel but the traditional 14 1/2" length of pull. I'd like to trim the butt end down 2" - 2 1/2" or so and then be able to add a rubber butt plate.

But I'm sure the butt end of the composite stock is hollow so I was wondering would I fill the end with JB Weld or epoxy some type of insert to fit into it? Thanks.
