Hi Angus, as the BW grips are causing quite a sensation right now, the Finn grips have followed suit and are probably in the $200.00 to $300.00 range for an excellent set! BUT!!!! these grips are not to be confused with the Mauser BW grips as the Finn grips ARE NOT Bakelite! And, as a result, some gun oils and gun spray vehicles will attack the plastic and ruin the finish? (how do I know you might ask???
) Unlike original Bakelite which is resiliant and resistant to most chemicals... Also, the grips were made to fit commercial DWM model 1923 Lugers and as a result don't always fit Mauser frames correctly... When JVM was doing custom Lugers, I had received about a dozen sets back when they were freshly imported.. Also had the five inch barrels with the large thick angular blade front sight... best to all, til.....lat'r....GT..
