I'm tempted to get this P.08 but I'm not quite sure to do the right thing, since recently I've also found a W+F 1906/29 Military Black Grips in very good conditions like most of the Swiss.
In my collection I already have a W+F 1906/29 but mine is a Brown Grips "commercial" version.

Back to the DWM 1915:

PRO: it's in original finish and appears to be all matching grips includes, is a collectable Luger, totally original conditions, apart from the aluminium base magazine obviously wrong it's in good conditions, it's marked S.P XXX which if I'm not wrong should mean "Schiutzpolizei Postdam", would be the only "non military" P.08 in my collection.

CONS: it's been rechambered (like all the 9 Para here in Italy), being an Imperial P.08 it's not really rare at all.
