New member here in Kennesaw Ga with police rework purchase

I would need much better pictures to tell if it was a Sipson rework. Especially if it is mismatched; it might have some "parts" that have been made or accepted by Simson, but NOT a rework by them. That term is used anytime a dealer is unsure what they have.

I have never seen a frame drilled on a pre-ww2 luge that was not finished. In fact, a magazine safety would have the frame cut, but the frame would not be? The sideplate would be, but I can't think why the frame would be, but it is 5:15 in the morning here, so...
