Luger grip safety

Vlim · 07-21-2020, 09:07 AM

The grip safety is copied from the Swiss Model 1929 pistol and it is not influenced by the grip construction.

The only difference is that the post war Mauser grip safety area has been shortened so it looks more like the 1906 type.

It is possible to remove it completely, but not advisable as you will have no safety mechanism left. Adding a Swiss safety is also possible, combined with Swiss grips or modified Mauser ones, if the pistol has the Swiss style frame.

Modifying the contour of the Swiss wrap around safety to a 1906 style also should not be too difficult.
