unspellable,

This subject has been discussed on the Forum numerous times. I believe that the consensus is that some of the 1941 byf (u block and higher) and 1942 byf Lugers were issued with these black grips. And, as Tracy says, they are of no particular significance.

A well known dealer coined the term, "Black Widow Luger," as a marketing term and it stuck.
