Yes...One of my S prefixed .38-44 Outdoorsmen, dated by SCSW4 to 1947-48, came to me with pre-war Magnas with the slight overhang at the bottom of the grip frame...The local seller allowed me a discount because he noticed it and didn't believe the grips were original to the gun...When I got it home, and began my detailed inspection/cleaning process, the grips were indeed stamp numbered to the frame making them original for sure...
I won't tell the seller because I would hate to mar his self-image...
