Hands Down Hugh Clark works on wood. He transmagic from a broken mag to a 9mm for my Luger Carbine!

Hugh Clark on wood grips, GT (Gerry Tomek) on magazines, Jerry Burney on holster work, Lugerdoc (Tom Heller) parts.

Of course you are right Ted. We are covered with the necessary experts for the Luger world, including yourself. We are blessed.

A good one or a worn one??? Repro or original??? Coarse or fine??? To be re-cut [Hugh] or used as is???

Gotta pin it down a little finer, pardner... :D :thumbup:

(I have several sets I have no use for, some new repro, some old original)

Oh yes, and will you take your grips in

"Paper (Wood)" or "Plastic (Bakelite)"?

Marc

Imperial grips??? Wehrmacht grips??? VoPo grips??? :D

Finnish grips??? Russian Contract grips??? :evilgrin:

Inquiring minds want to know. All of the foregoing questions are good ones, but the basic question is, does your Luger have one eye or two (WWI or WWII)?:)

1929 dwm

opps 1929 dwm , weimar right grips looks ok just has a space on the bottom about a 1/8" bothers me

Im glad its not mine! I would definitly need some help puting it back together!

...???...Bottom of the right one looks OK...Bottom of the left one is a little worn around the grip screw area... :confused:

actualy it's the right grip

this is the right grip on the 1929 dwm , note the fit on the botom front edge, not real bad ,but it bothers me on a nearly perfect pistol.

That's a dust trap, all right!

(This much gap would irk me too!)

does me for sure, may take some gorrila glue and fill it in , then reshape it and stain it for now.

:soapbox:I used Gorilla Glue one time on a piece of wooden furniture. After that experience, I threw it away and will not allow it to enter my house again! Horrible, foamy, stuff!!!:eek:

huge, got that right, it did fill it in and i reshaped it to fill the gap for now, not really noticable, but while it was curing it was a mess, i did use two dabs on a loose erfurt grip ,then just sorta sanded it off till the grip was tight it worked well for that.

Dan,

Hugh Clark would merge actual wood with the grip to make up for the discrepancy, blend the checkering, and stain/finish to match, same as he does for the million dollar chip. I'd recommend his work, after he's repaired two of mine. The patch will be very discrete.

p.s. The Gorilla Glue can be a mess, for sure. Gotta police the joint repeatedly with a damp paper towel until the foaming action stops. The foaming is designed to work the glue into voids within a joint,so it will be well-bonded, for sure, once the foam cures into a structural matrix. I was surprised the first time I fixed some joints in a wooden chair; came down the next morning to find the joints all had blossoms of cured (by then) foam. In that case, it works OK to carefully scrape away the hardened excess.

And the buildup it provides can be handy, like when I was excising a design into the skin of a calabash gourd and realized two small elements which stuck out in relief, had been located improperly. I scraped the two offending bits off, and "moved" them over by dabbing on two dots of Gorilla Glue and then worked them down to the proper shape and thickness. If I hadn't confessed to having done it, I'd wager the majority would never catch it.
