That's quite a mystery...How did this Luger end up in Ralph's collection??? Was it lost, stolen, loaned & never returned, shown in an exhibit & forgotten, stupidly lost in a drunken card game (hey - we've all been there!), or perhaps thrown off a dock into a deep lake...

I suppose we'll never know, now that Ralph is gone...
