Provenance of the "facts" are important when the facts are related to the historical significance of a collectible firearm. Without indisputable documentation...
(such as official capture papers, or published news stories related to the surrender of the gun in question, or sworn affidavits from the original veteran owner)
... to back up the story, it is just a "story" and would have no bearing on the collectability or value of the Luger.
All that said, It is a very nice "G" date Luger and would be a welcome addition to anyone's collection, with or without a "story" to go with it.
Welcome to the Lugerforum, and please share any news or additional information you receive on this Luger pistol.
