I need help identifying these grips.

The first set is for a semi auto pistol. They are made from black plastic and are about 3 1/16" top to bottom, about 1 13/16" across the bottom, and about 1 1/8" across the top.

The second pair are for a revolver. They are made of reddish brown plastic and are about 3" top to bottom and about 1 1/2" across the bottom.

    I need help to identify which pistol these grips fit. They appear to be new. The right grip measures two inches across the top, 1 1/2 inches across the bottom, and 2 7/8 inches perpendiculary top to bottom. Any info will be appreciated!

    SEMI Auto grips most likely made after the 1968 gun control act for pocket pistol made in EUROPE the thumbrest as part of point system to allow it being imported. the second pair looks like a colt revolver but too corse checkering on them

    The Makarov grip retaining screw goes thru the back of the grip.

    Karl, I believe is correct. The grips are aftermarket for the Hungarian pistols, sold in the U.S. "Target" type grips gave them a higher BATF point score, for importation.

    Below is photo of one of the pistols. There were many different similar models. In 32 ACP, .380 & 9mm Makarov calibers.

    High Standard made similar checkered plastic grips, for some of their revolvers. This was years ago. They made many different models, between the 50's and 70's.

    The grips in your post resemble them. Because the checkering, color and lack of markings.

    ...these grips fit the FEG-manufactured pistols:

    They were sold under many different names, by several importers: KBI, Interarms, APK, PA-63 & AP-MBP come to mind, and in a few calibers: .22LR, .32ACP, and .380ACP (maybe 9mm Makarov).
