I personally would opt for the slip on pad if the gun is original. You didn't mention the age of the gun, but no matter who does the work, I suspect any add on pad is going to be noticeable as an alteration. This year I ordered a few pads to have around to use. Without going to check I don't remember the brand but I remember they were a very nice dark colored leather, appeared well made and were really inexpensive ($40 range). They fit very well, had an internal pad which was very effective, and had a velcro wrap around design that was not bulky. As mentioned they protect the major part of the stock and are easy on and off. Weight didn't seem noticeable on a really light Ithaca NID 20 I used as a test. With the value of a Purdey I would certainly try this first.
