my proud: Simson-luger
Here is my newest baby!!! It's a very nice Simson-luger. I have now some questions:
The total production of Simson-lugers is nearly 12.000, my one has the #1874a. Imo i have one of the last. But in some luger-books i read the last ones should have the "S" on the toggle and no year on the chamber. My one has the full name "Simson Co. Suhl" on the toggle and no year. I have also two kinds of the last digits on the parts. The 7 is different. My gun is all matching including the grips (#1874 inside), every part has the "eagle 6". One grip-screw has also the "eagle 6", the other one has "eagle 33", but it seems to be also from Simson. The firing-pin is fluted, not ground later, i think it is made so by producer (imo after 1932). The mag is not matching, but it is a nickel with alu-bottom from Simson, and only 11 digits away (#1863a). What should this mean? Your opinions please. <img border="0" alt="[king]" title="" src="graemlins/r.gif" /> |

Dieter,
Very nice piece, congratulations! Would it be possible for you to post a photograph of the witness mark on the bottom of the barrel? --Dwight |

I tried to take some good fotos, but it doesn't work. I'll receive a new scanner and than i'll take new pics, not such a trash like above.
