Odd markings inside grip.

Z,It's difficult to tell from your photo, but the inside of the grip shown appear to be original and the marking could be a Mauser spare parts code --- L-S42, but I've never seen one lke it. Having been a Bay Area resident for over 20 years, I know that your area is where Old Hippies and rich folk go to retire. TH

I guess "Miss Vickie" doesn't ring a bell either. I guess you're too dang young, or, we're too dang old. (Readers choice.)

All the best,

PS. Do a Google image search on "Tiny Tim." (Careful, you may want to change your avatar if you do. )

I'll take a squint at it "sideways" and see if I can make out anything more - to me it looks like L-54... last digit undecipherable. L-S42 would make sense though. If its a spare parts code, do you think it was a spare part swapped in later? We'll probably never know.
