Looking for gunsmith to shorten Benelli stock?

I have a Benelli M1S90 Field with a synthetic stock that I would like to shorten the length of pull. Does anyone know of a gunsmith who has done this before on a synthetic stock?

Any advice would be appreciated.

I seem to recall the same as Erick -- the Gunsite custom shop would do it for you, at a rather dear price of around $100. They would cut down the old stock, epoxy a block of plastic into the cut-down stock and attach your buttpad onto the block.

Heh, the other Benelli's should be pretty easy, compared to my Nova! I love this gun, but it sure would be nice to have it at least an inch shorter. Thank goodness the foreend is shaped the way it is, so I can get a firm grasp with just my middle finger and thumb.
