New info on my Luger and now I'm ticked off!

I showed it to my mother and asked her if she remembered it and she said " Yes thats the Luger my father gave to your dad"
....... What? You mean dad DIDN'T find it metal detecting? She laughed and said no your grandfather "FOUND IT when he was serving in France during WWII."

What then dad lied? She laughed again and said YES that my grand dad gave it to him because he said he could fix it up, he took it home took it apart and couldn't so he THREW IT IN A CARD BOARD BOX in our basement where it stayed for years. And our basement flooded several times from what she told me and he never even bothered with it again.

So thanks to my dear old dad what started out as a beautiful numbers matching Luger that only needed a take down spring to work properly he RUINED the gun!

So a couple things it was never involved in a random murder or shooting in Baltimore city, my father RUINED IT, and my grandfather whom I dearly loved brought it back as a war trophy. I feel like punching something while crying at the same time.

But even tho my dad lied to me about its origin and he basicly destroyed it his mission was to make it shoot again for my grandfather. So I completed what he started and ruined so many years ago for my grandfather. At least granddad never lied to me and I'm thrilled to learn I have HIS Luger. I just wish to God I could have gotten ahold of it rather then my dad all those years ago because right now I'd have a beautiful Luger.

Thanks dad be glad you're dead or I'd kick your ass.

Gand dad if you're up there watching somewhere I got her working for you again and have done the best I could with the train wreck dad left me.
I promise it'll be well cared for from now on.
