[Ltdave]

which of these would be correct for a June 1944 Winchester M1 rifle?

[RCS]

top one with cloverleaf pattern is correct (do you have the large pad too ?)

Top one.

[Ltdave]

top one with cloverleaf pattern is correct (do you have the large pad too ?)

large pad? not sure what that is exactly and id have to go to the shop to look...

if the top one is correct-er then ill just use it...

thanks

Winchester large pad

The large pad would be used in a restoration but not really required. Sometimes there is a
problem using the later "round top" safety in a large pad trigger housing. Most SA and
Winchester trigger housings had the pad modified to a smaller size.

If you are using a Winchester safety with the flat top (which would be correct for your rifle)
and the large pad WRA housing, everything would be correct and will work
