P47-25 throttle quadrant.

why is the propeller lever red with the letter 'M' on it?

That's the mixture control.

That's the mixture control.

but when you look at the quadrant it is: (from L-R)
supercharger control
throttle
propeller
mixture.

and when you change prop pitch, the lil red knob moves.

That's a mislabel bug. The moving knob should be P for propeller. The far right knob is the mixture control and should show the M.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.
