Note that Manlicher's carbine has a spacer and pad added.
I have a bolt gun that is one inch short with pad. It is handy with winter clothing and the daughters like it.
Next time I see a nice JM shorty for sale, it comes home with me if the price is close to reasonable. Option two is to chop my Texan.

well I wear 36 inch sleeves. I need a longer LOP. I made the spacer out of a piece of walnut. Bought it for $265 at Bass Pro in Dania Beach FL, back in 2003
