Best I can tell, wood is 4.9" tall and ~1.66ish wide at attachment to pad. If the pad you've got is anywhere close to that or over that, i'd love to give it a shot.

Congrats on the sale of the 94/95 hybrid. I sure do like that one as it's in fine condition.

Thanks for offering it here to the members first. Smile

You are right that Galazan is not making the correct repro Pre-64 M70 vent pad any more.  Best bet may be to find an otherwise wrecked take-off stock with the correct factory pad and cross your fingers it's fit is close enough...

I don't have anything suitable.  I do have a rough Featherweight-Westerner (with that pad) that I'm going to send to auction, but no take-off stocks.  I had one but I gave it to a WACA member who had a similar problem a couple years ago.

Good Luck!!!  You'll find what you need eventually... Laugh

Lou

It is slightly different from the original pad though, and unfortunately the pad is the only thing it will take to make an otherwise nice and original m70 african correct. Hoping to find a used one as I fear any sort of a reproduction will still hold back overall value of the rifle.

Gun currently has a pachmeyer pad, but is not cut down. Hoping to find a used one close enough in dimension to make it correct again. Should look like the below.

Years ago, being somewhat OCD, I would buy this publisher's books as they came out. 
I'm going to make a note to my executor to put my library up on the WACA forum at less than scalper prices, after I go in for my last driving layup. 
  

Great idea.  I put a couple books on this site and they sold immediately.  Somehow I ended up with duplicates.  They weren't even Winchester books.  I sold them for what I paid when they first came out.
