No4T Scope Pads

**Macca** · 07-17-2016 03:56 AM

Being a neophyte in regards to no.4 T's,my question is whom currently makes the most accurate reproduction scope pads.
I've read about the Sarco/Pacific Rim generic types & the Accumounts & have seen the Fulton's pads but with no comments about their quality.
Thoughts?

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Fultons. But in the end, they are only as accurate as a) the rifle they're fitted to, b) as good as you fit them and c) as good as you adjust to collimate with the telescope and bracket you fit to them.

Thankyou for your prompt reply Peter,
It's questions,answers & research that I hope to have the abc's down pat.

I have a set of pads from DS Solutions (and set from Fulton's, but these are set aside for future No4T clone project, that's still some considerable time off) that i was hopping to utilise on a L42 copy im getting close to being at pad/scope mounting/collimating stage. I am unable to discern any noticeable difference between the 2 sets, unlike a set of the asian made items an associate had, which i examined and found to be somewhat crudely made - to my eyes.

So my question is are the DS Solutions pads considered of a reasonable quality/usable?

**Peter Laidler** · 07-17-2016 07:35 AM

I don't know the answer to your Q but I wouldn't mind betting that your good quality sets came from the same stable originally.

And for Macca's benefit, there is a 3 part article detailing exactly how to set your proposed No4T rifle up - properly

The pads from Fultons and DS Solutions are excellent. The ones from Sarco are crap. I wouldn't even consider using them.

**tbonesmith** · 07-18-2016 02:04 AM

+ 1 on the Sarcos. You really need to remake the rear pad as its unusable...

**Brian Dick** · 07-18-2016 08:51 AM

The Sarco front pads are unusable too. Steer clear.

**Jsne** · 07-19-2016 12:55 AM

I bought pads from Sarco. Trow them out
And make my own.
Dont bye them.

**Brian Dick** · 07-19-2016 12:40 PM

I'd say send them back for a refund but it may be more trouble than it's worth since you're in Denmark icon

. Go to Fultons of Bisley - G E Fulton Son or http://www.ds-solution.co.uk and get a set
