Hello,was using the old winchester 435 today,and my red butt pad is really starting to fall apart,I know I won't be able to find a replacement red one,so does anyone make a butt pad that is a direct replacement for it?
Diana Winchester 435 red butt pad
- Thread starter zrman27500
- Start date
as it is a Diana 35 i checked all the normal places
Knibbs, T.W. Chambers, Protek do not have them
Waffencenter Gotha list them out of stock and they would need to be fitted, they have been reproducing many parts for years also the price is outrageous and with shipping not worth it
OMPS2 shows the part at 37 euros but shipping will take the fun out of it and they rely on factory parts so just because they show it doesn't mean they will be able to get it
https://www.omps2.it/en/mod-35/5143-recoil-pad.html
checked Egun and saw no stocks for the 35
checked UK Ebay and USA Ebay nothing there
that is the best i can do
a Morgan pad might be your best bet but all options are not cheap

good luck

Why not fit a Pachmayr? Or similar. If you can’t do it a gunsmith will. It’s not particularly easy for most people. Most would butcher it, I guess.
A Morgan needs fitting as well. And that’s the last thing I’d put on that gun anyway. You might.
BTW you won’t easily find a red Pachmayr. I scored this one NOS on eBay. I don’t have a pad sanding jig but have enough skill to do it without one.

LOL! It's a Theoben. It was brown. It's the only one I had on hand.

Now I need one for a Webley Tomahawk so whatever I can get on eBay for the right price will be it! Most likely brown/no white spacer. I'm patient because the original is still very serviceable. But getting hard and slippery. For some reason It didn't last as some others. The one on my other Tomahawk is fine.

Mine has actually split down to the spacer,seems these old wonchester pads are worse then most,I have a 333 and it's pad is pretty rough as well,not near as bad as this 435 one is though.

Check these out. Check the options. Most are out of stock. Maybe you can find them elsewhere.
And make sure they're big enough!
