I know you already have the answers you were looking for, but IMO, a large chip in a numbered matching grip, properly repaired by Hugh Clark or Jim Solomon, will restore the value of the gun to what it should be. I always deduct value for chipped or incorrect (non-original) grips on any gun I am considering buying.
