while i was considering this simson/jager
https://www.gunbroker.com/item/893510026 which was nice, but over priced (imo - seller didn't seem to think so....)
i stumbled onto this example, in a shop in new york state
https://gunsandbows.net/product/fra...l-length-is-28-34-serial-number9944-617/it is in nice shape, with an amazing amount of case colors intact....seller says 2.75" chambers - but that remains to be seen. seller has sent me several decent cell phone photos of the action body - but none of proofs. interestingly, the floor plate has the typical "herold" markings, but not the "simson jager verschluss" markings that (usually) accompany the former.
at any rate, fellow was nice and helpful...price seems reasonable, and payment was sent yesterday....we shall see.
best regards,
tom
