Replica recoil pad is identical to the pre-World War II Silver's pad. Early guns by Purdey, Parker, Fox, Ithaca, Winchester, Holland, Sauer, Merkel and L.C. Smith would have been shipped with this orange recoil pad. Pad base measures 6" long and 1-31/32" wide (at the widest point). Pad has two 5/8" diameter knock out plugs for easy access to screw holes during installation. Screw holes are 3-1/4" apart.Notes: After installation of the pad, buff it with Vaseline to add a sheen. Coat it with varnish, tru-oil, and shellac and let dry. This will preserve the sheen
