I have a 1950 Model 94 that had an old plastic/rubber recoil pad. Looking for a curved butt plate to put on.

Winchester did not use a “curved” butt plate on any of the post WW II production Model 94 Carbines. The butt plates were thin flat checkered steel.

That’s what I’m looking. I guess I call it curved because there is a slight curve on the end of the stock. It isn’t completely flat. I have a ’46, ’50 and ’53. The ’46 and ’53 have the same plates. The ’50 came with an old Redhead Brand Chicago pad that was in pretty bad shape. So I want to replace it with a checkered steel one.
I recommend looking for that butt plate on ebay.

Thanks. I saw that but didn’t realize what I had was considered flat and was worried it was the wrong one. Can’t believe the cost. I guess they are rare and hard to find.

That are definitely not rare… Winchester manufactured more than 1-Million Model 94 Carbines with that exact butt plate. Finding one that is not still attached to its original butt stock is a bit more difficult, but with all of the Wimps out there that insisted on installed a recoil pad, it should not be overly difficult to find one at a decent price. I certainly would not pay what Homestead parts is asking!

Definitely a little much, but I admittedly only went there for a quick search, might be a lot more out there.

I have this one available for sale and also comes with the screws. The buttplate and screws are in very nice factory original condition. Screw heads are excellent and not buggered. I would like $80 shipped for the buttplate and the screws. Please send me a PM if interested.
Thanks,
Don
