Trying to get a grip!

[G.T.]

Hi Tom, its hard to tell sometimes, but it seems to me that most Mauser grips are angular around the edge, and flat on the main part, where DWM has a nice smooth radius transition. The checkering on early DWM is a bit more fine than later manufacture, and the color more often light golden brown, where'as Mauser are usually darker reddish brown? With the exception of late byf grip sets which are kind of yellow. I'm beginning to think the fit is the best way to tell, because they sure don't seem to interchange very easily. best to all, til.....lat'r....GT
