I have a couple of old Brown. Neither of them has any "black"
streaks" like yours show. My guess it is not old Brown.

It's brown, or you can sell it to me as black!

leaning towards early black. Either way, it'll be on my site in a day or two.

One of the original US Border Patrol 14's going up, too. No, wait... Border Patrol 14 gone gone gone.
