however - you will find a set of "correct period" grips out there - it may take a while, though...

Honestly - Luke - if they look good to you, then they are just fine. By that, do NOT be discouraged by the fact that some of us think that they are not "original" - it really doesn't matter. What matters is that you enjoy that Luger!! As case in point - I have a mis-match G date - and to a "collector", it probably isn't worth all that much. But you know what? - I gave that G date to my Dad when I was 18 years old - so it is "priceless" to me..

My point here is that if it "looks good to you" then it is "good enough"....

And I, for one - sincerely hope that this Luger begins the journey for you - which is about what "collecting" is supossed to be.... It's about the passion we all share for these firearms. And it's about the comradiere of this Forum - of which you are most welcomed to share that same enthusiasm...

My Best to you Luke......
