I purchased an Enfield P14 from a member here, and I would like to replace the recoil pad to increase the LOP. Besides the usual recoil pad makers, are there any other you would recommend. I'd like to replace the pad with a red recoil pad. Your suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
 

Red 1 1/8” pad. Kickeez makes a good product and is a good company.


Another option is the NECG red 1 1/4” pad.. well made, look “classic”, etc…

Does Kick Eez 300 use a new formula than the old ones which got STICKY with age? That was my only complaint back when I last used one--it would actually pick up oak leaves, so sticky.
 
I have used the necg's in the 1 1/2 and kick eez 1 3/8 in pads on several rifles and shotguns to get the correct lop for me. You can also get NECG hard rubber spacers to add if needed.
 
I have heard Pachmayer stopped making red "Old English" recoil pads. Limbsaver doesn't make a red pad. Just as well. Their pads are too soft, especially for big bore rifles. For recoil pads there is a point of diminishing return re softness. Too soft and the recoil just sails on through. Can actually make recoil worse than holding bare wood snuggly against the shoulder.
