Broomhandle Grip Help

Thor · 03-10-2011, 05:54 PM

I have a Broomhandle that needs replacement grips. Are the proper grips the 1896 Model or 1930? SN is 803337, 5 &1/2" barrel in 30 Mauser with normal hammer. Gunparts have grips for these two but I dont know which one to get.

According to the Blue Book the 1930 Comm. Started at serial number 800000 and went to 921000. My guess would be 1930 grips. Maybe John Coe will see this . He is the broom expert. Bill

Ted,
Check the pictures on the Numrich website, their 1896 grips have about 35 fine grooves, the 1930 grips have 9 coarse grooves. The 1930 ones match yours.
