Well I feel very stupid, because I realiase that I did not now enough to really preserve this treasure. I did wrap the old ammo box with bubble plastic (also the pistol) for the last few years, but after hearing from you and others, I realise that something special should be done to preserve and take care of the aging problem. The box is still strong, but the paper on the ammo box, as well as the piece acting as the seal, is not in a good condition. I decided to think a bit on everything that I have ecperienced the last few days through the Lugerforum, before moving to the next level. I want to share as much as possible info, and I also still need a lot of information. I will post it in due course. Piet
