Interesting Don. I hope he can acquire more info on how the old timer got it. If your info about a large number of these pistols with similar markings being captured by USGI's is correct it would make me feel a whole lot better about mine. I would sure like to think that the hash marks added to the grip of mine were added by a GI AFTER it had been ''liberated''.

I think you would be safe in that assumption.
