FYI: repro grips

I have a P08 with matching grips. I wanted to preserve these grips so I bought a repro set off Ebay for $24. Much inletting had to be done with Dremel sanding drums and Dremel router bits. I thought I had done a good job. Wrong! I had trouble with the pistol in that it wouldn't ****. I noticed the safety lever would 'slip' past it's 'notch'. I gave up on these repro grips after hours of inletting and finally put the original grips back on. Problem with cocking now gone. Stay away from repro grips.
