Since it is the same number, I would modify it to fit the Schiwy safety. Members of this forum, if coaxed with a little candy, could measure the cutout for you to take to a Luger machinist to finish your grandfathers P08. I would recommend Gerry Tomek or Olle Fornehed here on the forum. They both do excellent work.
