Considering the rarity of anything genuine from Simson, if it has the period correct magazine with a genuine E/6 inspection mark, I'd probably buy the pistol.

Remember that only 12,000 or so Simson Lugers were made, and perhaps 24,000 magazines would have been produced for those pistols - total.

IIRC, It normally would have a folded tin body, and E/6 marked aluminum base.
