GunCatGot a spare Ruger factory recoil pad ?
Anyone have a black Ruger recoil pad from a wood stocked M77 or Red Label they care to part with?
I picked up a 77/44 that has an aftermarket pad and I’d like to return the rifle it to near factory condition. I’m hoping the M77 pad is just a bit larger and I can still grind it down to the 77/44 stock dimensions.
(You can contact me via PM if you prefer to make a deal)
Thanks,

I called and they sent me a half dozen about 5 years ago. They are nice simple pads and if I remember right, about half the price of similar pads from Pachmyer. I used them on a couple of projects (not Ruger) after grinding out the Ruger emblem on the face. Tell them the model and color, they are very helpful.

I've got one on the way from Ruger. Thanks for the hint.
...and why didn't I think of that
