Yes Simson was an orginal producer of the Luger Pistol.
...but there is a gun dealer in the USA called Simpson ( http://www.simpsonltd.com/ ) that specializes in Lugers... this may be what is confusing you.

Just saw this post. Yes there is some confusion.
I published the book "Simson Lugers" and when some people see it, they think it is about our Lugers. |

Brad, you should make some lugers?
Get me about 20 blank toggles and we can make some really cool designs
