What about those lunch pail Lugers?
I have been following the thread, and I would think that the best thing (or give it back) is to talk to the feds and have the serial number placed back on it, or a new one. Since it has been grinded on, a new serial number won't make much differnce. I would imagine that it is like going to the State Patrol and getting a new VIN #. I've done that a couple of times for a trailer and a car. You go, tell them the problem and get a solution. Being honest has always kept me out of trouble.
If you paid for it (I think this one was free), then if they consficated it, you aren't out anything, but my gut feeling is that geting it renumbered would be a viable solution.
But back to my question.
I have always heard about lunch box Lugers (colts etc.), what do or what have collectors done? This has to have been an issue faced over the years?
