The grips are certainly different...I like them! And the magazine w/aluminum base looks good, too!

And your English is very good! Much better than my German!

I've seen those grips on a few Russian captured Lugers.

RylanBrissette · 03-21-2009, 03:29 AM

I agree they are post war grips... I believe I have seen them a few times before as well, I just forget where.

The mag looks nice, a photo of the base would be nice though

Hello,
thank all for the answers !
The Grips is for German Postman in the WW2 or
frontcaptured Russian ?
The clutches are same both. The magazines are old version. + signifies reserve magazin. The number 3476 is the standard number What does signify the eagle 63? What does signify W?

Thanks all !

Hello Dirk,

Es ist nicht fur ein Postman (Deutsche Reichspost / Postschutz).

Post war meaning they were made After WW2 (1946 - 2009)

For the magazine, the eagle with "63" is a WaffenAmt stamp. WaA... 3476 is the serial nummer, "W" being the suffix letter.

RylanBrissette · 03-21-2009, 06:23 AM

The grips are not worth much, the Magazine is worth maybe $100 to 140 USD (70 - 100 Euro). Just my opinion.

Dirk, Your Russian grips usually retain here in the USA in the $25 range and the pitting on the bottom of your 1937 or '38 mag would reduce it's value to the $75 range, unless you find the buyer with the matching PO8. TH

sheepherder · 03-21-2009, 05:44 PM

IMO, judging from what I've seen on eBay & GB, the grips would go about ~$50USD, the mag ~$100USD...That pretty much reflects what I would pay for them as well...
