when my dad died at 75 in late 90's i inherited his ww2 bringback serviceable but unfired ceremonial mauser. his nazi proofed browning hipower that he took from a captured german and used instead of his 45 was gone, apparently stolen by a workman when he was in decline. i loved that hipower and its tanker holster, i even brought it to grade school for show and tell (my how times have changed). i have never replaced it because it would not be dad's. my sincere condolences to o.p.
