Opinions as to Martz .45 Luger value

G.T. · 08-09-2015, 02:04 PM

The grips were probably made by George Sarkiskian (Sp.?) I couldn't even say his name much less spell it?...

..... But his talent was outstanding! And I really liked and admired him! I also made several sets of 45 grips for John, among his other offerings.. But they were ALWAYS bordered & checkered by George! ... His name, or my name, (put there by George!) might be on the backside... BUT, I'm pretty sure on who made the mag bottoms though!....

..... Although I didn't put that nick on the one in the grain spot?...

... Brings back a lot on memories.. Never knew what the finished product looked like or anything special as we just got the frame in the white for grip fitting... Memories of great craftsman and fine friends, John & George both.. Best to all, til...lat'r....GT

H Rich! I hardly ever mark my stuff! And, I never put my mark visibly on any of his stuff!

.... The mark on the bottom of the magazine was put on by me, but it is JVM in an ellipse..... I started marking them for him after he broke a few regular bottoms trying to hand stamp them unsupported! .... Wham! ..a broken bottom! Wham, a broken bottom! Wham... Gerry, would you please stamp them for me?....
