Sniper Artillery

Pete and Jack... Very impressive "imitation" UNCLE setup... but the grips are not authentic to the show... the original gun had custom grips that I believe were made of either resin or machined aluminum that was slotted in the back to accept the wire stock... I have a photo of the grips somewhere... if it wasn't lost in a file mishap I had several months ago... If if find them, I will post them...

Another thought just occurred to me... I used to spend a lot more time on our sister forum... P38forum.com and I remember a old discussion of this gun that included photos... if they haven't been expired and deleted, they might still be there... I will search for them there as well.
