1941-2 Luger Black Widow Grips

Bakelite grips are very smooth on the back, with no bubbles or surface imperfections. The threads in the screw keeper holes are sharp, with crisp edges. there is no warpage on originals, if they have been kept well. Under bright light, they have color nuances within them, especially at the edges, where plastic is very uniform. take the two grips and gently knock them together. Real bakelite with "clack" like a set of castanets.
