Stamp marks on my new P'07

[gew8805]

I don't even know if I'd consider those grips to be original. They don't fit quite right. The scabbard is about new, no wear and tear at all. The blade looks to have a re-finish...I wouldn't worry about replacing them if that's what you have in mind, but Peter's right about being able to get most of the oil out of those. All the marks look right on there as well.

Well, since we haven't seen a photo showing the grips in place or even a good picture showing how "oil soaked" they are, it's difficult to know if they are correct. The bayonet has definitely been refinished, so....

Yep, looking again, they surely are.

To me, they look good, I would leave them.

Your correct Buntline if your happy then that's all that matters, but the gist of the forum is to offer advice and knowledge.
The one thing we as collectors cannot get is pure trained up skills from the military as they learn through experience and what is not written for the general populace.

I have respect for their views and take on board what they say, but in the long run and value for your $ and where it fits in your collection if it makes you happy then 'nuff said.
