I do have Gibson's book, but many don't- so would you mind summarizing your take on this?

As I recall Heinrich Kreighoff was interviewed after the war at which time he stated that he had not been an "enthusiastic Nazi". This is something of a joke as you would be hard put, in post-war Germany, to find anyone who admitted to having been one.

We are definitely all free to form our own opinions .
To be clear I am no fan of the NSDAP or what they did . I actually like the lack of swastikas on HK Lugers . My issue here is I have never seen any documentation of the HK firm having anything to do with the demise of Simson . The NSDAP is guilty of it IMHO . Quote:

HK didn't directly took party in the demise of Simson, but they sure took profit from it. |
