Model 14 Micarta, black or brown?
I have a model 14 with a micarta handle (mid 1960’s, solid, no screws).
I cant tell if its black or brown. I took photos... on a white background it looks black and on a black background it looks brown. Was there a color in between brown and black? Thanks! |

Thanks... that’s a great looking Astro!
I read that brown micarta (1964-65) was replaced by “veined green” which was actually black canvas micarta. This “veined green” black micarta looks and turns brown/yellow with age giving it a brownish hue. I’ll take some pics in full sun and see what is looks like. |
