I bought my 'collectible' M1900 Luger from Simpsons, from Floyd actually. He was friendly, helpful, and went into the safe and got out the Luger I was interested in and spent 5 or 10 minutes looking at it and answering my questions. I bought it.

Floyd was quite truthful about several of my concerns (bore condition - fair; overall finish - patina all over). There was one minor issue but only a detailed disassembly would have uncovered it.

The price, as mentioned, was above 'GB' prices (sometimes!) but it was available, I didn't have to wait, and they accepted credit cards. I was satisfied with the transaction.

BTW: Simpsons will entertain offers.
