Dave, that gun is/was part of a 2-bbl. set. Wonder what became of the #1 set of bbls. and its case?

This one is not an original - I know because I installed it a few weeks ago. It is an old Noshoc pad a fellow sent to me for free. It has a couple of cracks in the baseplate at the heel so I had to drill and use a couple of extra screws. I'll use some black epoxy to fill the cracks, smooth it over and I'm sure it will pass muster pretty well.
I bought this extra Repro stock from Ralph English a while back to fit to Kathy's 28 ga. Repro skeet gun. The wood has swelled a bit in this wet New England weather these past couple of months but I'm sure I can shrink it enough before fitting it to the gun.

Oh, by the way, I had the shield engraved with Kathy's initials just like Jessie Bishop's little 28 ga DHE was from her husband in 1908. I sent this photo of Jessie's to the engraver along with the Repro buttstock. I hope she likes it.

Mr.Skeuse,I thank you for taking an interest in our forum.Welcome aboard!

Dave, Greg,

That is actually part of a three barrel set, and no the pad isn't original. It's pretty though to move them without the ssbp, even that cheap.
