This is the butt-plate from my newly purchased Belgian SXS. Have you ever seen anything more ugly? It has a charm of its own!

I love it. However I love the Boroque period. BRING ON THE GUILDING AND THE ORNAMENTATION. Diamond dust mixed with plaster is not required, but is a nice touch.

These are from L.C. Smiths.


left to right, Two pointing setters, used on early higher grade Fulton L.C. Smiths.
Dog watching Duck fall, Syracuse era hammerless L.C. Smith, used from 1886 to 1888. I have never seen one ao a Fulton gun.
Setter on point with right foot on rock, used on Syracuse hammer guns from 1883-4 to Fulton early hammer guns.(This one from 1884-85)
Then on most were of the lines commonly seen on both hammer and hammerless.

Some may be ugly, but I would rather have the original butt plate then have a gun with the stock cut and a recoil pad added.

I know this isn't what you mean at all, but they don't get much uglier than this. This is the LC Smith I just finished up. I opted to go ahead and replace the recoil pad.
