Mark: the weld lines are certainly subtle, but more apparent on the brl flats. Definitely not laminate though. Could also be a lower grade of "Bernard" (the pattern on the R is 'Rose Bernard')



Alex: thanks very much for your excellent pics and sharing your gun. And you can get a 'Silvers' style pads (which would be quite appropriate) from Galazan http://www.connecticutshotgun.com
