Default Rubber butt option on Repros??



We discussed this a couple of years ago, but I don't recall that we ever came to a definitive answer as to whether or not any Parker Reproductions were furnished with a butt plate other than a skeleton butt. As you can see from the above pic of the end cap label of an original Parker Repro box that there were two options listed for the butt plate--skeleton or rubber. Did rubber mean hard rubber like a DHBP or a rubber recoil pad? I recall a Parker Repro listed on one of the auction sites being offered with a DHBP and also recall a poster claiming the hard rubber butt plate being listed as an option in one of the Repro brochures. I have, what I believe, a complete collection of all Repro brochures and it isn't listed in any of them...perhaps that we now have Mr. Skeuse aboard he can clear this up for us.
