Not Vopo grips, I think - no bullseyes. Thanks, everyone, for all your comments. If I decide to pursue the gun further (a big "if"), I'll insist on disassembling it and taking pics to post here. It's a big "if" because even if the gun is legit, I think it's waaaay overpriced at $3,995 with a mismatched mag. Consignment gun, and the usual nonsense about the FFL having no leeway. There are too many well-documented guns out there at that price to justify taking any chances. I do appreciate the education about the brown plastic Krieghoff grips - I was unaware there had been a shipment to Mauser.
