'Red 9' grips

DHENRY · 05-16-2009, 02:05 PM

I'm hoping that the experienced collectors can answer a question for me.
Is there more than one configuration (form of the 9) on the '9 Red' grips.?
I have seen both a rounded-over 'bottom' of the '9' and a straight-angled lower portion of the numeral.
Thank you for your consideration.

Hi Don,

There are several different variations of Red 9's. Here's a posting by
George Anderson on Jan Still's forum regarding some of them.

Probably as many as the German company farrier's artistic bend might have allowed.
