Here's a pic of the two gripframes...I don't have my verniers handy (I'm taking a motherboard to the PO) but except for the locking notch, the curve looks quite close...

I've seen pics of Lugers with attached board stocks that were at a Gawd-awful angle; I'm guessing that the stock was a Finnish board stock, locked at the Luger notch...Lugers & Lahtis are the only gripframes with external "T" lugs...

I have a Mauser stock iron that I'm using as a design aid, but I really need to find a Luger repro stock iron...
