A Navy Luger from the Belgique Resistance

These photographs were sent to me late last week with a request for assistance in finding a place to have this Luger restored. The story with this gun is that it was captured by the Resistance in Belgium during WW2 and the barrel was shortened <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" /> to make it more concealable...

It is definitely an interesting specimen...

I have already sent the names of two gunsmiths in Germany and one in Sweden where it may be properly restored, but If you know of a place in Belgium where this gun could be properly restored to full Navy configuration, please post it here.

Here are the excellent photos:
