So who is good at identifying wood?

I bought some used Ahrends for my M&P 340, but the seller did not know the wood type. I'm no good at this stuff, so I thought I'd post pics and ask the experts! Thanks in advance.

It appears to be fancy cocobolo. Nice!

Slightly better pics. I'm not a great photographer...

That's the pain your hand will experience on a scale of 1 to 10 when firing heavy loads in that dandy little wooden gripped J frame.

Don't be skeered!! It's not as bad as they say!

Yep, Cocobolo. I have several from Ahrends.

Very nice! (And becoming very scarce; it's now on the CITES Appendix II list.)
