Crappy Indian made grips.

Fritz et al, Your CDNN repro PO8 grips appear to be the Italian made ones that they have been selling for years now. Unfortunately, they are cut too low below the safety lever (so that they won't chip out like the originals do) and also at the top of the left side. As with all new repro wood grips, they are made a bit oversized, so that they can be fitted to any luger frame. I've never been crazy about the dark verticle grain running thru these, but the Watco's stain does even it out a bit. TH
