Replacement grips

k1mri · 08-03-2005, 03:44 PM

If I were to replace my grips using another pair of wooden grips would they fit properly? Or are they hand fit to each pistol?
Thanks again.

Hi Mike,

Depending on the grips. They may need to be fitted. Usually just a bit of minor shaving of the flange on the back of the grips. A tiny amount at a time.

Mike, Most all new repro wood grips come oversized and require some fitting. Used ones or originals that have previously been fitted to a luger may be undersized for your particular PO8. That's why when I sell a set of original grips, I alway offer a money back guarantee, as fitting my be a problem. TH

Thank you for your help. What is the price for a pair of original grips that you may have?

Most grips for the Mauser made Lugers are slightly too wide to fit DWM & Erfurt Lugers correctly, and vice-versa, the DWM & Erfurt grips are slightly too narrow to fit the mauser frames properly.

Get some grips from CML in UK. They fit my 1941 S/42 luger PERFECTLY and had great wood grain character. Compared to the cheap Indian-made ones, they excel, even in price.

I believe that CMR International may be out of luger grips at the moment, but you can try them at: cmr.international@btinternet.com TH
