Ruby-style Collection at Simpson (Dec 2023)

[somd_mustangs]

Just a heads-up to anyone interested in the the WW1-era and post-WW1 Ruby-style 7.65 mm pistols - Simpson Ltd must have received a large collection of these and has been posting them the last couple of weeks. These are outside my wheelhouse but a number of them I'd never heard of... no clue if there are good deals or not (remember it's Simpson) but there may be something in there to fill a hole or two in your collection.

Their website can be... difficult. Easiest is to go to "What's New" and scroll back in time rather than trying to search specifically.

Legacy received a collection of "mouse guns" too (.25 ACP) with some interesting ones mixed in.

There's a lot in there for sure. Their info is a little off on some of them, but there are enough good examples in there for sure. Nothing that's a bargain. Most are higher than you'd see on GB, but again, it's Simpson.
This one was of interesting note for me as I'm waiting on its younger brother (to the tune of a 20,000 units younger) to be freed from MD Gun Jail.

Garate ANITUA SPANISH RUBY - C60283

Mine doesn't have the safety rivet like the earlier production models tended to, but still has the acceptance and issuance marks, so it was carried in the war at some point.

Someone definitely consigned a full collection here. Lots of commercial stuff mixed in with the military stuff as well.

I noticed this pile of Rubies earlier in the week as I've been watching for new SIGs and Glocks that Simpson imported recently.

 

[somd_mustangs]

yeah there's a metric crap-ton of Glocks that showed up

 

[mawkie]

The Glocks are Swiss canton police marked and in very nice condition. Never had a yearning for a Glock before but am a bit of a Swiss fan boy so they have me interested.

 

[somd_mustangs]

I missed that but it makes sense, considering their close ties to the Swiss market...
Being Swiss-police marked almost piques my interest too... almost

 

[tallen702]

If I had the extra dough (which I do not) I would love to grab one of the police P210s they have on hand.

 

[mawkie]

My mitts are just too small to deal with the 210. Ditto for some of the HK family. An old school single stack, single action design works best for me. Why I've been toying with emptying the bank account for a vintage SIG 49. Can't go wrong with one of those!

 

[somd_mustangs]

Yea the Sig 49's are more my speed taste-wise but not budget-wise
They have some nice ones.

I'm sweating a lot as I look at the Swiss C&R P210 in 30 Luger. I can't help but feel it's worth more than the 2.4k they're asking, (though I'm probably wrong), and I'm glad that I'm broke at the moment.

Looks a lot better than I did at 51.

You got a url for this one? I don't know if I've ever heard of them.
