If the grips on it are just very worn originals and fit the frame well, your best bet may be just to send those to Hugh for restoration. I sent him the original numbered grips from my 1900 Parabellum, which had the checkering worn almost completely smooth. Three weeks later, I received them back and was amazed...they looked as though they'd just left the DWM factory, beautiful checkering and that gorgeous reddish-chocolate brown color of the originals. He's a true craftsman.
