Thanks, Edward...

And no, no intent on baiting the forum... I have had the Luger for a while, but just now "getting 'round to studyin' up on it" so my ignorance is appalling and apparent.

I _suspect_ that when I post the pix, we will see that the numbers match, since it is your basic WWII acquired from the homeland piece during the Conflict. But we shall see.

I have just the basics of the info about how my father got the piece, so I have little info on just where the Wehrmact officer got the piece. I do know it is not a swap meet special, so maybe I should be showing it a bit more love than just having it wrapped up in a cloth and stuck on a shelf. Then again, it lived for 50 years in a footlocker in the basement, so its living standards have improved somewhat...
