I'm not sure what the Germans would do , but what I do is send my grip problems to Hugh Clark in Texas. I know for sure in can repair a Luger grip better than most.

I don't want to spend an amount that is half of what I bought the revolver for...as someone on Still's site suggested...and I would rather it stayed (for the most part) 'unrestored'...

I may just mix up some sawdust & resin and pour it in and belt-sand it down...or rout it flat and epoxy a piece of whatever pallet is lying around at work onto it...

"Field expedient repair" is what I am shooting for...but everyone has their own pet method for 'fixing' chips, gouges, cracks, etc...

It'll never look new and I don't want it to...I just want it to look complete...

(Read Eric's thread about finding the lost chip for his Luger carbine...it's pretty amusing, really...I'm not quite that particular...)
