...But do the brown grips have the "SA" emblem???...

OK, all kidding aside...Why would anyone claim -

"Excellent used East German grips.I knew the Germans had a purpose for the molded circle on these grips,so when the war ended this is what it was for (SS). 1 Black and 1 brown available."

If you're going to try to make them out to be a special SS item, why say "when the war ended"???

Why not say "Issued to the SS troops led by Skorzeny for the rescue of Mussolini at Gran Sasso"...

If you get a green light...go for broke!!!
