	I have a high wall “special sporting rifle” with a steel shotgun butt plate but I have a sneaking hunch it may not be original. I can’t find pics of one anywhere. Does anybody have a pic of one or a good description? Mine is checkered with a widows peak. The one on my 1886 is smooth so that’s why I’m wondering.

	The one on my original 1885 is as you describe. I have a reproduction marked Win 1885 that is smooth with a "widow peak" in my part inventory though.

	Mine is checkered right to the edge, no smooth border. I can’t get a pic of it right now as I’m away from the rifle.

	My stock maker-friend thought the same, an original Niedner. I can live with that. Thanks

	Winchester High Wall made in 1887.

	I'm not a complete idiot, some of my parts are missing.

	Looks like the same one used on the 1897 shotgun and others.
