Dear friends,
the Simpson Stoeger Luger is not the original Mauser Stoeger. The barrel is a "new type" 1923 with rear sight that ranges from 0 up to 10. If you look at the picture you can see the standard P08 rear V sight.
It means that this pistol is a P08 stoeger rebarreled using a 1923 arty barrel.
The original Mauser Stoeger LP08 have the normal barrel with rear sight ranging from 0 to 8 w/o adjusting screw.
I hope this helps.

Ciao

Mauro
