Jostam Sponge Rubber pad replacement
As mentioned in multiple post the base Red Rubber plate is braded to the stock with multiple brads along the perimeter of the base plate.
So as to return this gun to as close to the factory treatment as possible I removed the outer portion of the pad which is nothing more than rubber cemented to the base plate and it came off surprisingly clean.
The trick is finding a competent smith to take the Sponge section of a NOS pad and grinding it to match.
Luckily I have such a craftsmen that I have kept busy for many years.
This is what can be done.
Good Luck, Will
