Plastic grips for Wooden

No offense intended on what the discoloration to the finish was caused by. It is just that over the years I have seen many Lugers that, due to improper storage, have had a poor finish. Often the seller of a pistol will point out that it is probably from blood. I have also seen cowboy pistols with grips that look like somebody nailed barbed wire with them. Somehow this gets translated into 'notches' filed for all the guys the original 'gunslinger' had to kill in the saloons. Bottom line, there is a lot of hype and myth that go along with the gun collecting business.
