Default Grip Markings

I have seen grips with the holes before. Usually they are repos or original with holes made for holding during re-checkering. I saw somewhere else photos of a similar pair and, they were thought to be possible post war VOPO/East German.

These have what looks like a VOPO X cross-out mark on the right grip, while the left grip has Eagle/N proofs, which I think are commercial Mauser proofs. The checkering apears finer than typical Masuer luger grips.

They fit a VOPO marked Mauser frame that came with it and some other parts. The frame is serial V series.

Let me know if you think they are original or repos with fake stamps.
