Jim, That is your opinion. Far more attrative to you would be an ugly recoil pad! It is a shame that some jerk would cut a stock to put a recoil pad on in the first place.
If I like recoil pads I could have added a Silvers repro, would have added about 6 ozs to weight.
I stated in my post that it was just my opinion. I find it interesting that you have no trouble calling anyone who likes recoil pads jerks. This, of course, is just YOUR opinion, and an offensive one, at that. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, proven by the fact that you are apparently proud of the job you posted as a picture of good taste(yours, only). A properly installed good quality recoil pad looks far better than your very visible grafting job. JMO, again but I'll stick to it.
