Dave - that Fox 20g B grade was listed for $14,999 on GI back in OCT 2018 by "Cheaper Than Dirt".

Here's the link to the 2018 listing with photos:

Any thoughts on the best pad to replace the Whiteline with? Original Silvers?

Generally speaking, the lower grade guns got a Jostam Anti-Flinch pad from their introduction on. At the CE-grade level it could go either way Silvers or Jostam Anti-Flinch. From XE-grade on up a Silvers was the norm.

A few of my B 12ga 30". A late style B in high original condition in any gauge is a difficult gun to find.

I ended up buying this gun months ago. I never did post additional pictures as requested. It’s a Philly gun, a little over 8 lbs. I ended up installing a Silvers style pad. It’s stocked pretty high for me but really reaches out there.
