Didn't someone post on here last year a story of a WWII vet that had made his own grips (similar to those in the OP) with a photo of his wife and lost track of the gun and the story was about its return to the man's family?
*As a side note, these type of original grip panels have their own collectible category called "sweetheart grips" or "trench-art grips".

"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo
For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison
