With all the discussion of these grips lately, with regards to originals and reproductions, can anyone tell the difference between these?SteveM

The border on the right is wider and does not have the extra "scoop" under the safety pivot point.

The one on the left looks more like an origianl, where the one on the right looks like a reproduction.

Wright or wrong?

I'll go along with the one on the left as being original? The suspense is killing us, answer soon.......maybe?

The one on the left shows a lot more wear and appears to be more carefully made than the other. The borders are narrower, the design more detailed.

The repro grip on the right would be a good shooter grip, but the one on the left has much finer checkering detail to my eye... looks the the grips on my byf 41.

just my $0.02

PS I would still like to see a closeup of the inside of these grips
