Stymie, Thanks, for the info! That's kind of cool. I like that. Wish I had the letter to go with it. The dealer I bought the Lithuanian from. I know did'nt try to mis-lead me. I've known him for years. He's one of the most honest gun dealers I've ever met. He bought it with the Muscat-Oman pistols, as a rig. From a heavy duty collector, who has since passed on. Walt was commissioned to sell the collection recently. He still has a few I wish I could afford.The collector had approx. 160 different variations of Hi-Powers. And over 130 Lugers w/ holsters. Some mega-bucks type bought all of the Lugers and holsters from the family. Walt said the guy got them for about 35 cents on the dollar. Ripped them off! Walt found out and tried to intervene, but too late.

Thanks! Ron
