I ended up going with the Czech ebay seller: vit-zemanek, who's grips jussi posted the link to

http://www.ebay.com/itm/GERMAN-ARMY-...item35acd7f3bd

I read the thread sheepherder posted http://forum.lugerforum.com/showthread.php?t=32155 regarding the N.C. Ordinance grips. Among these postings, vit-zemanek grips were reviewed as being exceptional.

I'll keep you guys up to date with my impressions of vit's "black widow" grips once I receive them.

Thanks,

Jeff

You won't be disappointed. I have bought several types of grips from this seller, and the quality is way better than NC Ordnance, Vintage Gun Grips and other US companies. For example, the grips he makes for Radom and Sauer 38H are 100% spot on, the only way to tell that they are replicas is that they are slightly heavier. Here is one P.38 grip panel from vit-zemanek, and one from Posselt (the original supplier to Spreewerk). The eagle eyed P.38 collector might spot a small difference around the grip screw, but that's just about it. He is the absolutely best repro grip vendor on the market, IMO.

Olle and Chris,

Thanks for your input regarding Vit's grips, I can't wait till they arrive.

Olle, I believe it was your post in another thread that helped convince me to pick up these grips.

Thanks again,

Jeff

You would have had much better grips then NC ordinance if you would have used the search function. Vit's grips from CZ are absolutely the best. The "bakelite" cast ebay ones from the other seller in the US are junk.

Search my posts to see various brand black widow grips affixated to my G date, including Vit's and NC Ordinance.
