Year makes a difference. I have another that is more like Dean's. The one I pictured is an 1889. Since yours is an 1896, yours should be closer to Dean's style.

Thank's again guy's ...heady stuff to be sure, do you fella's have any suggestion's as to where I could get my hand's on a reasonably priced skeleton plate...don't forget I live waaaaay up here.

Do you think an after market like the type offered by brownell's,or galazan would do the trick ? I would of course have to wait some time to get it engraved to match...what with being a dad of two kid's under 10 and a having a primary occupation as a janitor

I think Destry has one for sale from an A grade, I think he was asking $160 for it. That was a few days ago, I don't know if he still has it. I suggest you PM him, maybe he can help.

I had a CHE 20 restocked and couldn't find a SSBP for an 0 frame gun. I didn't want to go with a pad so went with a checkered butt and love it. Just another suggestion. Another consideration if you find the SSBP is the cost of haveing it engraved.

I've got an original Parker skeleton steel buttplate in the for sale section at $160 if you're interested. It's off an A grade gun but my guess is it would worn on your project just fine. Drop me an email if you're interested: dhoffard@ameritech.net
