Howard,
Is this the one? I'm not expert on any Lugers but the price doesn't seem too bad to me especially for Simpson's. Tom http://www.simpsonltd.com/product_in...oducts_id=4830 |

Too late boys, I tried to buy the Persian this morning and it had been sold. I thought it was a fair value for its rairty. David

That is one of the more reasonably priced scarce Lugers that Simpson's has had for a while. I am not surprised that it was snapped up right away. If I had a spare 2 grand in my jeans, I would have bought it. Glad you got it Howard. Should you ever decide to part with it....

Yeah, I know. But I also have this thing for contract Lugers. Just one of my many character flaws.

Hey, I like it too and it should "stay" with police lugers!

Just a note to the young guys.
I've found that in over 30 years of married bliss. Its much easer to get forgiveness Than permission!

Almost my entire gun collection was made on the bended knee of forgiveness.
