Nice Pistol
I cant see any reason for not contacting the G.I. if in fact he brought the pistol back. that being the case you have a very rare oppertunity to talk about the history of the pistol if he can still communicate. That's an oppertunity only a few have the luxury of and it wont last long. There would only be 2 ways it left his hands either it was stolen or he or a family member let it go. I would want to know that either way. and if he is a ww2 vet he may be delighted that someone is showing an interest in his history. A missed try would haunt me forever. JMHO
