I'm about to purchase one soon but wondering if there are any options to reducing the recoil.

I've read as much info available, though very little, and I don't mind the "ugly" looks, the clumsy feel, the slower reload, the goofy carry handle, the poor sights, etc. The thing about the recoil that bothers me is one report by a user that the stock began to show minor cracking after about 100 shots. It will be used mostly for home defense and some outdoor plinking fun but I want to ensure it will last.

I heard porting a shotgun barrel is a debated option so not sure on that at the moment. If anything I may open up the bullpup stock and reinforce the insides with something. Any ideas or suggestions?
