    jmoore: If you go to pictures 79/84 on the piece about a '45 No. 4*T (Knowledge Libraryicon, page 3, Canadaicon) they show the backside of the front pad. THe one illustrated, while clearly different from an H&H fitting doesn't look as bad as some I've seen pictured. I'm also curious about the long, skinny "T" on some Longbranch's. Anyone know where and when these were applied? Someone who faked a Savage T I bought when I was young and naive (ie. last year) inappropriately used this exact skinny T.

    That's a useful photo, but what I meant to ask is: Are there any photos of the backside of the Canadianicon pad itself whilst off the rifle? I.e., the area that gets the solder. There's some differences that are largely hidden when the pad is installed.

    ETA: Like this photo of a Britishicon pad under rehab:
