*◊ SIMSON REWORKED ARTILLERY LUGER WITH SUPER RARE GOMANN-GRUNOW TELESCOPING STOCK.

Revised: 10/13/2013

This lot has been withdrawn from this auction for the following reason:

There is currently a question as to whether the “Super Rare Gomann-Grunow Telescoping Stock” is legal or not. It currently is not on the list of exemptions but in fact the likely reason it is not on the list of exemptions is because of its extraordinary rarity. There are only a couple now known to exist today. This example was purchased from an American auction a few years back by Dr. Sturgess. Another example was sold by that same auction house a couple of years ago and a third example is in a notable foreign collection. In fairness and in consideration of both buyer and seller, we are withdrawing this lot from the auction and we have filed an exemption from ATF because of the previous two sales in this country, we anticipate that we will receive an exemption. Once we receive that exemption, then we will reoffer the same pistol in a future session of the Sturgess Collection either in March 2014 or October 2014. Sorry for the inconvenience however we want to be certain everything is done on the up and up.

Auction: Firearms - Fall 2013

Please Note: All prices include the hammer price plus the buyer’s premium, which is paid by the buyer as part of the purchase price. The prices noted here after the auction are considered unofficial and do not become official until after the 46th day.
