Hi Jerry,

I believe you will find that the 1908 Navy did not have the grip safety. Possible a very few in the single digit serial range did have the grip safety, but I would be leary of any that had it. The 1908 Navy was not chamber dated and is always in the B suffix range. The 1906 had the grip safety and no chamber dates. The 1908 is the same as the 1906 except no grip safety, and then came the 1916 and 1917 dated models. The gun on Gunbroker is a 1908 Military Navy.
