[Grayson Williams]

Picked up a Remy CEO trap with a Pachmayr pad need suggestions for replacement. Gun has some ejector issue which hopefully will be sorted out this week.I have repo Silver s,Hawkins and a vintage Perkins pad.Correct pad for the gun ?.Thanks,Grayson

I would think that a silvers would be the only period correct option for when the gun was made.

I agree. The earliest Perkins pad listing I've seen is in the c. 1916 H&D Folsom catalog
