That's the beauty of heirlooms....

But it's not an heirloom. She bought it a couple years ago at a local gunshow, and why would I keep something around that reminds me that people are *******s and take advantage of my mother's kindness and naivety? Not like this thing was taken back from Germany during WW2 by my grandfather.

When I look at it, I basically see... "mom got scammed" written all over it.

I'm the polar opposite of her, I do a lot of research before I buy anything. But she's the kind of person who keeps the people who run infomercials and **** in business, unfortunately.
