That one would have been special to get.

Not the first story like that I've heard. One individual had a 1911A1 he brought back from the second war. He took it out of his kit, unloaded it and put the mag on the shelf. 60 years on the gun is sold and the mag comes out of hiding with it. When they went to the range the ammo the gun and the mags all worked flawlessly. Not quite the same but...

I also have one about a vet bringback 1928 Thompson but that will just have to wait.
