I posted this in the classified section but thought someone here might have one. Trying to cover all bases.
Just picked up a 1953 vintage 94 Winchester. Had a pad added. I want to put it back to original, so looking for a butt plate and the screws that go with it. Thanks.

Nope; his rifle had a flat steel plate, heavily checkered. They went to plastic later in the 60s; cost savings.

Thank you for the replies. Checked the one out on Ebay and it is nice, but, since I have only about 300 in the gun, might go with a reproduction one. This my gun is very "finish challenged" and will mostly be used as a "truck" gun, or when I go camping. Again, thanks all for the replies.

In that case, just go with a plastic one.

In case anyone is interested, here are some 94 Carbine butt plates from the 40s to the 80s. Left to right;
1943-48; no records available. 1.3 million serial number.
Next two are checkered steel; 1950 and 1962.
Next one is later stamped steel, most are blued.
Last one is the late plastic one.
All are top eject.
