Stu, I think Pete is right on. I have one Luger outside of the range I collect and I keep it because it has the most stone perfect grip SN'ed to the gun. It's a 1916 DWM and the grips do not have that gap you are looking at. Also checked a minty 1917 Erfurt police rework with Erfurt proofed grips and last 2 SN# to gun, it again does not show a gap. As too if they are WW2 replacement, that I would not be sure of, but the grips do have that look of new repo.
