Nice Trojan for sure. I am not trying to nit pick your gun but am trying to refine my eye for originality. I thought, perhaps erroneously, that there should be no checkering border to the rear of the pistol grip. Yet, this one certainly appears to be bordered everywhere. Perhaps Brian can explain further.

The Trojan pattern should have a full mullered border.
Other grades will have no mullered border on the lower rear section of the grip.

It would be jumping to extremes to say that on the applicable grades, the border in said area would be indication of a full restock. Just incorrect recut of the checkering.

Brian,
As someone who is always learning, could you please tell me what a mullered border means?
