Aaron,

My first Luger purchase, a byf-41, had a pair of black grips EXACTLY like the ones shown in your picture. After sending scans of the grips to several members of the Luger Forum, it is my understanding that these are East European repros. Oh how I wish they were really authentic WW-II German Black Widow grips; I had to buy a pair of authentic grips later for a pretty high price. I can send a scan of my repro grips directly to you by email if you are interested.
