Runningiron, your lost zero turned up in my first post on serial numbers in this thread. You are welcome to have it back.
As for grips, I happen to have some Interarms Parabellum grips and frames in hand as well as some vintage grips and frames. I'll take a look tonight and report back on whoose what.
Most of the Interarms Parabellums have a safety grip, which means cutting some wood out of the inside of a standard vintage type grip if nothing else.
Part of the reason for the thick corners on the first Swiss style grips was to make room in the wood for metal positioning pins inside the front edge. This would limit how far they can be taken down. At least some later P08 style grips for the 06/73 model do not have these pins. They are also thinner.
