Curious grips. They look to be right handed from the rear view, but then why the unnecessary flare above the trigger finger. They do look somewhat like Sanderson's, but I'm not the expert here.

I would like to find out. I am negociating on an early post-war K-38 with the same grips.

The grips still have have a sticker on the inside from Lou. J. Eppinger, Inc., Detriot, MI. They make fishing lures and I guess had a sporting goods store back in the post-war era.

Those are Sandersons. Lew Sanderson was a Detroit Police Officer and shooter.
If you end up with an extra pair, please give me a bump. Those fit my hand like a glove.
