I had also posted that on the Walther forum two weeks ago.
My youngest son told me a few weeks ago that an aunt from Washington, D.C., was sending him and his cousin each a gun. When he unpacked his at the gun store it was a Walther PP that came from the estate of his great uncle Dr. Guy E. Abraham.
My sons both were born in his house in Rolling Hills, CA, as he was following my wife in the last months of the pregnancy. So, while his favorite niece was busy with the new born babys, her uncle and I went shooting and I got him into buying a few guns. Among others he got an HK P7M8 and P7M13 and the Walther PP, which turned out to be his favorite.
To my surprise, he was an exceptionally good shot and informed me that he had been on his university pistol team when I remarked that he shot very well. Actually it is not too surprising from a man who excelled at everthing, was a professor at USC, had his private jet plane and had over 100 articles published in JAMA.
Guy had always said that the guns should go to my sons but he passed away a few years ago and my inquiries for the guns yielded nothing and I almost forgot about them. I just found out what happened to them; that one aunt from Washington, D.C. ( a corrupted city in any way!) had taken all guns and sold them off in the family and another aunt secured the two guns for her nephews, knowing that those two are really into guns and shooting.
So, Micki finally got the gun he was to inherit, in the box, the original grips that had been inside and the magazines missing.
He is very excited and happy to have the favorite gun of his uncle! In a way it came home.
