S Simson question

No 30 lugers made that are documented (you'd think there would be more than one).

ABSOLUTELY no S toggles that are not 'a' suffix. None, zero, nada, none. My data has hundreds of Simson lugers and not one documented S toggle has turned up that was original that is not a 'a' suffix.

7000 serial range is simply too low compared to empirical evidence of others. I do not discount the possibility that it went back to the factory and was given a 30 luger barrel and an S toggle at that time, anything is possible...
