In the last two weeks I added about 12 new Simson serial numbers to my database, Graham and I are up 326 serial numbers, with toggle and about 60 verified proofs on the right. These 326 mean we have either talked to collectors who have witnessed the gun or have the gun. Anything unverified goes into another database of unsure items, so I beleive the 326 is fairly accurate.
If you have a Simson, please send me the information to

Also, something interesting I am looking at, after talking to PJ and Vern, is what machine guns did Simson make during the 1920's and early 1930's? And the big question is, what were they marked with for acceptance or proofs? Is it Eagle 6, eagle 46, eagle ??
Anyone know or know where to look?
