No4T pads

[stevlas58]

Good morning everyone. I'm looking for a source for original No4T scope mount pads for a 1931 trials rifle I'm restoring. Any thoughts?

To be really honest I think that you'd be better off getting a good repro set and adjusting them to fit. But even that probably wouldn't do because there no chance that the screw holes would even be close to those on the rifle. Get or make a set without the fixing holes and fit them. It's quite simple - IF - you follow the instructions. I won't go into it here but many have done it by doing your homework first then the proper preparation and then following the instructions to the letter

Didn't we have a thread here where a member took us through the entire procedure of making a set from scratch?

Well I guess that I should have bid on that rifle as I have a set of trials pads...
