Hmm, maybe it was red Paperstone?I've read through several of the old Redmeadow threads, builds and others, and one had an oblique cut piece of paper micarta (same as Richlite?). John, have you had a chance to play around with that since? You had included a pic, I believe of red, and it looked intriguing. Might have to start with thicker stock for that though, not sure.
Btw, that Serrano was beautiful, and I tend to like pointier things (like Keira!).
Hell I'm glad you said that, I completely forgot to put the natural micarta on the list. The redstone does have more of a maroon color to it than red.Was thinking the Redstone richlite, but seems too purpley to me now, so pencil me in for the blue canyon. But if you find more of that reddish natural micarta please let me know.

The Serrano is one of my favorites and usually have mine on my hip.
Paperstone has a definite grain to it, black richlite looks solid, and the blue and red have a cloudiness to them as opposed to any linear grain. Both are lighter than micarta.
Crossdraw is a great way to go, you can draw from almost any position you're in and it keeps your strong side open for a firearm.
I'm good with that Ron, though I'd like to do a pair like that in the same run. You'll show up in the 7th and 8th run for now, when we get there we'll adjust however we need to so that their built together.Hey John, I’ve been mulling this over. I’ve got a twin brother. I'd like to put my name on the list for a matching set. Basically dibs x2. Doable?
Only if your a siamese tripletIzzit possible to get/order/have liners on this model? I'm going with the bone Micarta on this one, but red liners with that handle material would prolly turn out nice; maybe on a future build?
Even though waiting isn't my strong suit, to make this easier, I can trade places with Ajack60, then move into run 8 and have Ron in both 7 slots.I'm good with that Ron, though I'd like to do a pair like that in the same run.

That would be mighty kind of you, let's hold off for now though. Maybe I'll do a run of three for that round, we'll see.Even though waiting isn't my strong suit, to make this easier, I can trade places with Ajack60, then move into run 8 and have Ron in both 7 slots.
It was that Siamese triplets picture, wasn't it?That would be mighty kind of you, let's hold off for now though. Maybe I'll do a run of three for that round, we'll see.

Thanks for the info, John. All good here.Some full disclosure here, I agreed to use some customer supplied micarta for one of the Dibs. If anyone else wants that I'll work it in but contact me well in advance please. As long as it's from a reputable source, I'll use it. This only applies to micarta (no other synthetics or wood).
