I have seen the .45 Luger in the Norton Gallery in Shreveport, Louisiana, on several trips to the gallery. John Sabato has been in touch with the gallery director, and I believe might have obtained additional information on the pistol. The pistol was bought by Harry Jones and sold to Mr. R.W. Norton sometime in the 1960/70 time frame. Somewhere Harry Jones recounts how he and Mr. Norton took the pistol out and shot it to their hearts content.

There is also a picture of this .45 Luger in Edward Scott Meadow's book "U.S.Military Automatic Pistols" on page 381.

The pistol is on public display for any that doubt it's existence.
