I had not researched pads, I hate that, sounds like I'm talking about Kotex, the recoil pad <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />
All of the rifles I own that have pads, have the half inch pads that mainly keep the rifle from sliding on the floor.
I prefer the old style 'red' color to the black. I'm not sure why but seems in keeping with the age of the design.
Thanks for the heads up.
