The reproduced DHBP's that I have tried (3) are slightly under sized with the hole spacing a little short. These are no. 1 size. Two are made from the same mold and were not good examples to be using for that purpose as they have the same defects, small chips and the sides are not right. It would be nice if we had a source for better made ones. I had rather fit the plate to the stock than fit the stock to the plate. If someone had a good example to use to make a mold would it ruin it to use it?
