original left hand grips?

dridgeway · 03-24-2012, 08:33 PM

Hello Friends ... The grip mounted on the right side of the pistol is thinner at the top than the left side grip. I assume to make the pistol more comfortable for the thumb of a left hand shooter. Grip has been worked to the trailing edge with checkering grooves. There is nothing I would call a thumb-rest or finger groove present. The pistol is .30 Luger caliber. The script letter under the serial number appears to be either an e or an L. I purchased a pair of OE Mauser Luger grips in the OE packing (or rather, what I was told was OE packing) and, if memory serves correctly, the left side grip in that package was thinner at the top for thumb comfort for a right-hand shooter.

BUT!! What I should have done was post pictures too and I will in a day or so I hope. And I will also post pictures of the replacement grips I purchased and the packing.

I've got alot to learn and I sincerely appreciate the questions and comments thus far. Please look for pictures in a few days. I've just moved and the replacement grips and my camera are still packed away somewhere.

Thanks again for all the help.
