Luger Grips

Jerry,

They are diffidently metal, the contact points for the frame are soldered on and the metal is not magnetic. They do not show any sign of being plated, the paint seems new as if someone just put the paint on. The mark I refer to as a jeweler mark is on the right grip, you can just see it in the second photo near the trigger. This mark, when viewed under a magnifying glass shows to be a red triangle encircled with black. One site on the web shows that this mark was used for political prisoners in the camps. One person I spoke to suggested that the owl could be family cress. The designs on the grips are handed tooled and not stamped as the undersides of the grips are smooth and tarnished.
