Default WTH is TT/TH/TS/WO/RR

This is the second for sale I've seen with TT/TH/TS/WO/RR

What the heck does it mean?

Sir:

TT = target trigger
TH= target hammer
TS = target stocks
RR = red ramp (front sight)
WO = white outline (rear sight)

Hope this helps, and Semper Fi.

TT = two tone
TH = the hippest
TS = tough s(tuff)
RR = rut-roh!
WO = wipe out

It gets confusing, don't it? I've been watching the ads here and in pubs like Shotgun News for 30 year, and I still have to stop and remind myself what the mean sometimes. Some of them still confuse me.

Ron H. nailed it, by the way.

I used to wonder what "EDC" meant...and was too embarrassed to ask, since everyone else seemed to know what it meant. Then I finally read that it means "Every Day Carry."

Am I only one who didn't know?

For the most part I hate abreviations. In flying there are abreviations for absolutely everything. It makes it hard for me.
