All this talk about pads has me tired out... At least it wont be another 28 days before it comes up again.

You cant go wrong with the silvers. They were available originally from a very early date, so they would be considered correct on pretty much any hammerless gun. Orange would have been more commonly used originally. But many do not like the bright look of a new orange pad and like the look of a newly installed red pad better. The simvers pads are available in both colors.

Dont cut the stock. A simvers pad will install (carefully) to a curved surfsce very nicely in most cases.


If your stock is original, has a curved surface on the butt and has no evidence of SSBP screw holes, it may very well have had a silvers pad originally. Does it have a small spur cut into it?
