Interesting research. Thanks for offering it. Tom at Phoenix is just yesterday out of back surgery. He was likely tied up with medical and missed your email.
I have toured the basement gun collection at the NRA Museum in VA courtesy of George Anderson. Quite the interesting experience but you are correct. MOST of the guns they have are not on display at any one time. They live in little/large slide out drawers. I was shocked at how few Luger's they had! Of course the same can be said of the Cody museum in Wyoming. They have almost none and don't care about them. Their focus is on cowboy guns. With limited space most museums use extras as a source of income.
I plan to die with some of my treasures. NONE of my family relations care about Luger's, me or Ellie. We are busy trying to form a trust..for disposal of everything when we die. My problem is who to leave any of it to? I am down to the NRA or a no kill animal shelter. Decisions decisions...
