His widow found it 20 years later hidden under the floor and remembered how much she hated Stalin for killing her husband, so she became a spy for the CIA. She fell in love with her handler and gave him the pistol as she thought she'd be killed if she was found with it. The spy went back to the embassy and put the pistol in a diplomatic pouch to the USA where it was....
    Now, THAT makes sense!!!

      I'm thinking that maybe the guy forgot to mention that this General, back when he was a Butter Bar, used that very same '03 to take pot shots at Pancho Villa...........

        ...not to mention, loaned it to George Patton and John J. Pershing to use as their personal sniper rifle to pot Kaiser Bill ...

          Rick, I'm thinking that if that description had been even another sentence longer, that you'd be doing a BOOK review on it. The writer/novelist/seller should maybe be told that it doesn't take 50 pounds of manure to fertilize one pot of Posies.....

              I believe that pretty much sums up what we're all trying to say here.

              Best Regards from Virginia,
