Bob, unless there is evidence of being rebarreled by Simson, i.e. Eagle 33 is usually seen and sometimes Eagle 6, then it is very hard to tell if Simson did any rework to it.
You do find that new-made 7.65mm lugers were bought by the police and they had to rebarrel them to 9mm (to be standardized is what is beleived and makes sense).
