Yes; tell them to send for a letter. Academia is notoriously cheap in documenting things like this when they know little or nothing about backgrounding an item. I've been through this a dozen times with museums and always stress that the money spent is indeed cheap when accurately documenting and properly presenting an item in societal context, which is what museum curating is supposed to be all about. The last time I did it, I insisted that they display my own story board with the gun - that way I I knew it was right and accurate.
