Thought you guys might enjoy a little family history about this item. As I have stated, this was my Dad's credit card. Turns out, it is a little more than that. One time (when it wasn't in the Pawn shop) and my father was away, my Aunt, my Mother, and my Grandmother were alone at home in East Texas. My Aunt's ex husband was attempting to break in the home to gain access to my Aunt. Well, my mother was attempting to load the Luger by dropping a round in from the top. As you know, the toggle action on a Luger can be very hard for a woman to operate. She never did get it loaded. In the meantime, my Grandmother took the perpetrator out with a baseball bat. The sheriff was called and the man was proclaimed to be "very beat up".
