Cutting down 870 stock, will recoil pad fit?

She is just starting out, so I am hoping to get a used 20ga and have her shoot that.
Ideally a good recoil pad and a 12ga at some point, but I don't want to spend too much money until we find something that works for her and her arms.
I was thinking about a double as well for her, a little shorter to her body but then I need 2 guns as we hunt deer with a shotgun and the doubles are not known for accuracy with slugs from 2 barrels.

The best part using a double is you have an option, slug or buckshot. I know there are many against it (buckshot) but up close like its meant for it is great. When I have my slug gun (pump) and the deer sneak in too close I wait for them to move off. Find too much damage with the slug up close. Gotta see what the gun likes for accuracy. I also have an O/U and have no problems out to 80yds with brenneke slugs. Put on a fibre optic sight and things got better. Most doubles only have a bead.

20ga and buckshot is not something I want to try, even 3in.
We hunt open areas in a controlled hunt, at minimum iron sights that can be adjusted is what work best there. I know some guns shoot straight with slugs but a lot do not, the adjustment is nice.

I have a SxS 16ga and love it, a nice OU would be nice for her I know, but 1 gun for now, if she gets into it then my pocket book may get smaller, ha ha.

Just buy a "grind to fit" pad. Cut the stock, trace around the end of the stock onto the new pad, take it to a belt sander and have at it. Finish up with a light sanding by hand.
