Repro black widow grips

[byf42]

I recently obtained a pair of repro grips for a 1920 shooter I have. Got them through Brownells, and are listed under the Vintage Industries reproduction handgun grip section. Sold as a byf 41 grip, they are well made and have exceptional fit. If you have an account with Brownells they are $22.04. I prefer wood grips, but these are nice for a shooter.

Could you possibly post photos of these grips since Brownell does not have a photo on the online catalog?

Thanks,

John,

let me borrow a digital camera and I will ASAP. Just for information they also have Mec-Gar mags for 22.90. Really do not know if thats a good deal or not. I also found a Wolff Spring kit for 6.60.

It is a reasonable deal for the mags... they sell for about that on ebay all the time.

You can also get a good image of the grips using a flatbed scanner if you have one.

Here are the pictures of the grips bought out of Brownells.

When you get access to the camera again, how about a couple of closeups of the fit arount the base/grips screw area in a little better light... the fit of these grips everywhere else seems to be very good, but the images of the area I have requested are bit too dark to see... in this light they look a little short.

I can't wait to see the insides...

thanks for the photos.

Here is a shot of the backside, and of the fit around the grip screw area.

They are not to bad for the money, and feel great in the hand.

IF these grips are random samples of the quality provided by Brownell's... these are indeed fine reproductions (although I doubt they would be taken as original by a knowledgeable Luger enthusiast) and a good value at that price... and would be great on a shooter to protect the original grips...
