A recoil pad assembly (10) fitted to the stock of a weapon (W) such as a rifle or shotgun for cushioning a shooter (M) against recoil forces produced when the weapon is discharged. A first pad member (12) is installed on a butt end (E) of the stock (T) of the weapon. A second pad member (14) is pressed against a shoulder (S) of the shooter when the shooter prepares to discharge the weapon. The second pad member interfits with the first pad member for movement of the pad members relative to each other when the weapon is discharged. Compression springs (56) then restore the pad members to their original position relative to each other. A seal is effected between the pad members when the weapon is discharged trapping air between the members. Relative movement of the pad members then compresses the air producing a cushioning effect which lessens the recoil force to which the shooter is subjected.
