Grips are part of the pistol, methinks

Michael, it is "nice" to get matching grips, but to me, grips of original timeframe is acceptable. I think the vast majority of collectors would like to have matching grips, but I think a lot of collectors do not consider that a non-matching item?

The ones now on the luger, are they numbered like a serial number or odd numbers? I had one that had no number, but were E/655 stamped and it was stamped very lightly.

Ed's 2 cents, welcome to the fraternity, you'll be lucky to stop at one...
