Grips on Mauser Parabellum

RAY1946 · 11-07-2011, 10:58 PM

A few weeks ago I bought a Mauser Parabellum with 6" barrel and Swiss style straight grips with grip/safety.
This gun is a real sweetheart and shoots on the money with WWB. The thing is, the checkering is sharp and after about 5 or 6 shots it is starting to bite somewhat. I have been retired now for 3 years and my hands have become somewhat "soft" and more sensitive.
Years ago I had a Walther PP in .22 that I used to shoot a lot and it had the same problem. Back then, I took a knife from a place setting and rolled it over the diamonds on the checkering and then sprayed it with True-Oil. this worked very well and made the grips somewhat soft and more comfortable to shoot. Would it be "kosher" to do this to the sticks on my Parabellum? Thanks,...................Ray
