That is a very nice DH and one that most everyone would love to have found.

Well in my quest to look at a No Shoc I came up empty.

IMO, any pad on a light 20 looks odd. At 15", why not just take it off and have a nice skeleton iron put on and have the butt properly checkered? Probably left the factory like that. It is a beautiful gun.

You could ask Tony Galazan at CSMC if he has an original. I'm pretty sure he can find a repro easily enough, but originals are out there. I had one for a #1, and I recall seeing an 0 somewhere too. I think someone mention Parker Repro parts around too, but I think the heel is more rounded than the original; at least that's the way I have felt each time I've looked at a repro.

Walter Eiserer, who worked for Gary Herman for years, before he moved up to Salt Point, NY, does the nicest pigskin (and other leathers) full pads I have ever seen. He's pretty much retired but still does work for Charles at Brit. Sporting Arms.
Dean makes a good point, in that a full covered pad does look real good on a straight stock, but installing a skeleton iron only requires inleting at the heel and the iron is scribed to the stock and finished. A good stock guy who also works in metal can do this without any sanding or refinishing of the side of the stock. Walter did one of these for my dad, many years ago, on a gun that had a piece added with a rubber pad. (The previous owner must have been a gorilla, as it was 15.5" long.) |

I never heard of this guy, but I'm not even sure what my next-door neighbor's name is either. Maybe you could get one made in plain steel. |
