You can buy an original S.W. Silver pad from Galazan's, but just as good a pad and identical is the Silver reproduction pad sold by Griffin and Howe.

The Griffin & Howe pads I've seen had a flexible back plate which will actually bend on the edges when it's mounted on the gun. The real Silvers are the only way to go as far as I'm concerned. Galazan is "out of stock" on them about 85% of the time but you can call the actual company over in England and they'll take your credit card over the phone without a problem.
