Hello everybody! Just got the pistol and holster and wanted to check if the grips are original and so is the holster. Thanks in advance for any responses.

Both grips & holster are originals. Grips made by Presswerk A. G., Essen, Lüscherholfstrasse 80a. S means phenolic resin with wood flour (sawdust) filler, so called Bakelit (Bakelite in English).

Agree with Jan re authenticity, however, one should be aware that there are excellent "repros" of this holster, and others, coming out of the ex-combloc countries. The ones of this type that I have seen are black, Otto Sindel maker marked with police acceptance stamp.

Guys, thank you for your responses. I was also aware of nice repros around and that's why I was worried about the grips and, especially, holster. Just today, at a local military show, I've seen a couple of black repro holsters marked Otto Sindel with police acceptance eagle. The leather was a little bit different and stitching was fresh.
