Default photos - left hand grips

Hello Friends ...

Here are photos showing the difference in top thickness between the left side and right side grips on my DWM Luger, s/n 510 L (?)

My thought is that the right side grip is thinner at the top so the grip will be more comfortable where the webbing between the thumb and index finger of a lefthand shooter will be placed.

I have not found the Mauser replacement grips I mentioned earlier. They are still packed away in my moving mess. However, they are cut such that the left side grip is thinner at the top to accomodate the webbing between the thumb and index finger of a righthand shooter.

I still plan to post photos of the Mauser grips once they have been unearthed.

I am very much learning about the Luger hobby and if I'm incorrect in my assumption about the reason for the thinner cuts, I would appreciate being set straight. Also, anything else I can learn about this specific pistol will be much appreciated.

Thanks again for all the time, help and consideration all of you have offered. Hope to hear more from you soon.

David
