Buttplate for Sale?

[JonC]

HI - I wonder if anyone has a buttplate for an early model Utica manufactured 219 they might part with?
I'd appreciate hearing from you...
Thx, Jon

Jon, Try looking on E-Bay for an original.  There are two different sizes.  The early plates measure 4.75 by 1.5 inches with 31 grooves.  The later plates are 5 x 1.5 with 40 grooves.  The early one should fit your Utica.  Also, Numrich has a replacement butt plate.  I ordered one and it was slightly oversized.  I don't remember the exact dimensions.   I also think one of the holes did not line up, but my gunsmith filled and re-drilled the hole to match and shaped the over size to fit.  It looked fine when finished.  Good luck on your search.
