Thanks Scott. I'm enroute to Atlanta, and will inspect the red fibers closely tomorrow. It's an odd sequence of colors too. Standard Randall's are red,white,blue,white,red. Have you seen out of sequence fibers like this done at the shop?
The Micarta I feel is brown, though not an expert. When I took it out of the shipping box, my first eyeball impression was brown. When you factor in the age and color changes... I can't speak to that.
I have to look very closely tomorrow at the butt cap too, to see if there is any evidence of a brass plate that would conceal a peen or recessed tang nut.
