Not really. The grips, at least to me, only indicate the trend towards faster and cheaper production methods. Just as plastic replaced wood grips in the U.S. on M1911-A1 pistols. The plastic or bakelite is much cheaper than fitting wood grips and more durable against water and oil. It was the standard for P-38's. Trying to tie black on black to the SS is a stretch that without some shipping records or some other support documentation is just a theory that's probably impossible to prove.
