Default Re: Bakelite/PPK Grips/OT

Were the mottle brown, kind of swirly marble looking PPK grips made of any specific plastic! They seem to warp bad at the top, especailly on the right side and crack at the rear and around the grip screws. I have noticed cracks in the darker color more, they seem to be softer or weaker in those areas. I really really like the look of those grips, pity they were not better made. This really surprised me coming from the GERMANS, looks like a design flaw! Wish someone would make a grip that looks like these but stronger for shooter PPKs. ~Thor~
