Default In Marvin's defense...

Thank you so much Patrick for your clarifications on several issues. We all appreciate your extensive research efforts, as we do Marvin's. Thanks to Marvin as well.


I, myself, not being knowledgable enough in this area to have commented or have known the truth without my own research, was also taken in... and if asked would have passed this information on to others in the future as what I believed to be true...


I am certain that Marvin was not the originator of this disinformation, but merely an unsuspecting courier...and based on conversations with him over the last 3 years, I don't think him capable of deliberate deception on a matter as serious as this would be to Luger shooters, collectors and enthusiasts. This information probably changed hands several times before it came to him, and there would be no way to determine at what point it was transmitted with a smirk.


Much information that is passed on from one to another is frequently a consensus, rather than traceable to an authoritative or published source.


The institutional knowledge of this forum is something we are all responsible to police if we are to remain a credible source of valued information on our common interest. I trust that our good friend Marvin will not be reluctant to bring information to the forum in the future because a source proved faulty in one instance. I also hope that you will continue your excellent research efforts "at the source" for many years to come.


Someone has obviously had a good laugh at Marvin's well intentioned expense...


just my 2 pfennig!


-John
