I always thought she just got a new one. Does it still have the engraved plate?

It's the same P90 that Kincaid gave her in a box of chocolates...engraved plate and all. Its a little thing, but it bugs me everytime Murph uses that gun after Small Favor when she dropped it into the lake after Tessa lashes out at her.
I wish I knew how she got it back. In one short story, Harry talks about getting paid for finding something lost in the lake. It wasn't Murphy's gun, but I keep hoping for a line in some short story or book that explains how Murph got her P90 back....perhaps Harry found it for her since he's good at locating things.
It's probably just something that got lost in all the writing and editing...but I still wish Jim would give an explanation....it'd be kinda of cute...even though Harry was jealous of Kincaid he still found Murphy's P90 back out of the lake for her.

Maybe Kincaid got her the inside line on getting the good stuff rather than the civilian versions of stuff like this, so she wouldn't have had trouble replacing it her own self.
Wellll, no maybe about it. ;)
Mr. Death:
Harry mentions at some point helping a coin collector retrieve a jar full of coins he'd dropped in the same lake, so it's possible Harry helped her find it.
Or, while it fell in the water, it got caught in the Water Beetle's rigging and didn't sink to the bottom.

although she could/would replace it herself...unlikely she'd redo the engraving. She's a practical girl. I will pretend JB intended to tells us how Harry found it for her shortly after....but the editors deleted that part out of a story.. :-X

I don't remember the engraving being mentioned again after SmF, but that could be an oversight on my part.
You can take it as an indirect WoJ that Murph is capable of replacing it herself through chanels she was introduced to by Kincaid. (not that she did, just that she is capable) Jim told me that when I brought into question whether it was the PS-90 civvy version now or the military version in a Beta discussion.
