I have noted that the GH guns that I took a close look at had stocks made of wood that showed better on one side than the other. I suspect that the wood wasn't good enough for use on higher grade guns because of this inconsistency but was too nice for lower grades. GH guns where a transition from low to high grade and would accept these irregular wood grains. Thus, some very nice wood ended up on GH guns, even if one side was different from the other.
