About 22 years ago, I acquired an absolutely beautiful restored 41/Banner police from Mike Krause in a trade. I sold the gun to Dave Sorroco as restored. He sold it to someone as restored.

Dave reported back that the new owner sent it to a world famous luger dealer/collector for appraisal who had certified it as being 100% original.

The new owner elected to accept that appraisal as the truth instead of what he had been told by the previous owners!

So much for honesty when money is involved!
