They do say there is nothing new under the sun especially when it comes to recycling. In the picture is a pair of Balearic Island sandals which I purchased while on holiday on the Island of Ibiza some twenty five years ago. As you can see they are soled with motor vehicle tyre and fitted with tough Chrome leather straps. They originate from the Islands make do and mend culture during and after WWII this pair must have clocked up some twenty thousand miles on my feet, and there is still a few miles in them yet. And now vehicle tyres have found their way on to sporting guns I wonder where they will appear next?!!!
The only lessons in my life I truly did learn from where the ones I paid for!

Question: How many miles, oops, I mean, how many mounts are your pads rated for?

I heard that if you install them on a "Best" the CC , maker's name,and engraving evaporate. Doug and I guarantee that nothing will enhance the beauty and value of any firearm more than one of our Huarache recoil pads. Read Arrieta2 (John Boyd) testimonial. He has one on his Westley Richards and "highly recommends it."

I knew the winter in the Dakotas was intense, but this just staggers the imagination.

I could use several of the Pirellis for my Perazzis. PM me for dimensions.

If white line spacers comes back in vogue, are you ready with some "whitewalls"?
White lettering on the "sidewalls" might also be a nice touch on a 60's Weatherby.

Doug and I gave serious thought to white walls and white lettering. I'll have to saw another tire to see if too many cord plys show on the edges. I really like to work with these blown Bandag recaps because there are no cords to peek through.

Due to the increased interest in light weight guns and accesories Doug (PA24) and I will soon be introducing our new Helium Filled Huarachi recoil pad. The HFH* model pad will have a rubber air bladder vulcanized to our already popular truck tread pads. Other model treads soon to follow. *Requires hollowing out the butt stock to accomodate the air bladder and one small side hole for the helium filler valve.
