This is why I am selling some guns now. It's an unfired as-new Simson Mdl 95 in 16/70mm and 7X65R with a new Zeiss Diatal/ZM 6X42 MC in a swing mount.

This model drilling has a top tang safety and the rifle barrel selector in front of the safety. No more arthritic thumb trying to work the Greener side safety.

For $100.00 more the seller threw in a solid Gbr. Adamy 16ga SXS.

HOOOOLEY COW!!!! That is fantastic!!! Good on you. I have always dreamed of something like that, but dream is all I'll ever do. But it is good to see some people have their dreams come true and I can sure see why you are happy about it. Heck, I am happy for you too.

The Adamy double has some wood blems and a piece out of the forend, but it's a rock solid gun.

My grandson has already talked me out of it. He didn't know I got it for him all along. wink

It appears to have been used as a slug gun; it has claw mount bases.

The bores are pristine, and it's a 70mm chambered gun with chokes close to mod and IM.

I need to fix some scallop cracking on the right cheek.

Beautiful gun.

Awesome drilling. Thanks for sharing.

That's a mighty nice Simpson. I run across quite a few shotguns with claw mount bases. They liked a gun that they could do anything with. You might also find a notched extractor indicating it had an insert barrel also.

Didn't have the notch, but I sometimes use the edge of the insert extractor and the edge of the shotgun extractor as my witness mark. I works as well as the notch, but it isn't as handy or fast.

About half my inserts (einstecklaufs) don't have the locating pins. I just scribe a line across the insert extractor and the shotgun extractor and line em up. Works just as good. A little harder to do in the dark, up in a tree stand smile
