Gripstick I.D.

Post by roadrunner »

Hey guys. Was wondering if anyone could identify the gripstick on the left. It has no numbers only a shield stamped on the upper left. Also undressed welds around its perimeter. The one on right is obviously yugo with tons of numbers. Nice blue and completely dressed perimeter welds. Just dont want to do s.a. mods on a good one. Thanks RR

Heres another try, S/F safety. No other stamps on frame other than shield. Thinking post war german i.e. MG3. "Thanks Crash"
Just looking for opinions before I mill it. Thanks RR.

Markings and serial numbers appear to be MG3

Thanks, Thats great, I am going with an mg3 theme on this build. Barrel, booster/flash hider,rear sight, topcover, drum. So this will help tie it together. Yugo grip has a more rounded triggerguard which I dont care for. Thanks again Waffen. RR :D

The mark is one used by Pyrkal/EBO, aka Hellenic Arsenals, the Greek combine that made the MG3 under license.
