There are several pads that would look good on it, and give you more LOP, without harming the original dimensions of the wood. I like the period style pads, Hawkins, Jostam, Silvers, etc.

I'm getting a little anxious about my 32" DHE getting back to me for the mid and late upcoming dove seasons. It's off having the triggers tuned and has been gone, along with my Elsie 32" 16 ga., for several months with no word. I don't really expect to hear anything until they're done, but I sure want to see Jim Kelly's name pop up on my cell phone screen!

Hope you enjoy it!

Stan: I was thinking a "thin" Silvers, or Silvers type pad.
