Grips look like repros (note gap above mag button)...

The close checkering tells me they are original, although possibly not matched to the gun.

more information from the poster would help.

Is it all matching?

Is it a byf?

It should be a byf 41, made by Mauser, but I assume it is a 4 digit date and not a 2 digit?

Doug, I have both coarse & fine checkered repro grips...I don't think that is definitive...

...But the 'hawksbill' above the mag button is much too curved...Almost like they tried to match it with the opposite grips' curve...It leaves a pronounced gap...

Here's three repro grips...All leave a large gap... [insert in my pic is an original vs a repro]
