I found a 'sticky' entitled Black Grips Data Request, 13 pages long...

http://luger.gunboards.com/showthrea...S-DATA-REQUEST

I'm finished pg 13 and have found references to six different 'tests' for Bakelite grips...

OK! Jan's Forum has it all! Everything you could ask for to determine if your grips are Bakelite!

(1) The Hot Pin test
(2) The Hot Water test
(3) The 'Castanet'/'Clink' test
(4) The Simichrome Test
(5) The Friction/Smell Test
(6) The 409 Test

What more could anyone ask for???
