Apologies for dredging up this old post however I was curious what became of Mr. Bessler. Unlike many here I had but one transaction with him on a Mauser C96 years ago which ended in my returning the piece as it just wasn't as described by quite a margin. I eventually chalked it up to an overly optimistic evaluation on his part and an overly hopeful interpretation of the condition on my part. I read of some later legal travails around 2016 and then the trail goes cold. I'd seen his website has been long gone as I seem to recall he stopped his business (Collector Firearms) quite some time back.

Any further news?
