my father served as a Captain in the Canadian Army during WWII....he told me that he was given a brand new P.38, but was too afraid to bring it home, so he gave it away...this was a story i had him retell over and over....I have always wished he had brought it home...my Uncle, who also served, brought home a Luger, with bakelite grips, and a Walther PP, but sold them....wish i had gotten that Luger...anyway...I have bought myselff 2 Lugers, 2 P.38's and 3 Walther PPK's all WWII issue, so I don't feel quite so bad about missing out on those others.
cheers
