Pad Type for a DHE
Distinguished Fellow Aficionados,
I am freshening up a newly acquired 12 ga. DHE circa. 1911 (S/N 157,000 range).
Based on the gun's dimensions, I'd venture to say it was ordered as a target gun, which is why I got it. It has very little drop at heel, double ivory beads and a non-automatic safety.
It needs a new pad. I'm not wild about the Hawkins pad that's currently on it. I'm considering either a red Silvers (which I happen to have) or a No-Shok which I'd need to procure.
Any thoughts on which one would be the most appropriate?
The gun points and shoots great, and I intend to shoot the heck out it on the clays range.
Thank you.
