Vern,

The left grip frame is a veritable "vegtable soup" of markings. Starting at the top there is your "F". About 1/2 inch below that is a "B" (at first I thought it was a "P" so check yours carefully). A little further down at the mainspring web there is an "N". At the very bottom below the pivot point for the grip safety there is a "2" and just below that a "V". At the bottom on the toe of the grip is a "D". All of the marks, except for the "B" are "upside down", i.e. the base of the character is at the top.

Nothing that I can see on the right hand side.

Hope this helps.
Ron
