There was a cartridge counter luger that traded hands at the recent Reno show as well.
One LF member took a digital photo...and comments by another that saw the gun (or photo) commented that the number-indicator's color was "too white" and should be more yellow... Gun was headed to the NC area... Another LF member commented at Reno that he had the chance, in the past, to see two (2) cartridge counter lugers at the same time...both with the same serial number...curious... |

Those Cartridge Counter grips are for the modern Mauser repro. They will not fit an original Cartridge Counter, nor could they be modified to fit. Note that the frame cutout at the bottom is a straight sided "V" rather than the curved contour of original Lugers.

Ron,
I totally agree with you.The Mauser Parabellum grips do not match with the original grips also for the other models. Ciao Mauro

Ron: If you look close at he rear of the grips, both sides are also cut for the grip safety of the Mauser repros.
