buttplate
Rifle shoulder contact
A buttplate is the protective plate covering the rear end of a rifle or shotgun stock—the part that rests against the shooter's shoulder.
Typically made of metal, rubber, or hard plastic, it shields the wood or composite stock from damage and may include a rubber pad to absorb recoil: The rubber buttplate made the kick more manageable.
