  Simson & Co, of Suhl didn't began commerical production until 1919, after the end of the First World war. They were appointed prime contractor to what was left of the German Army. They were only ( Simson ) in business for approximately 18 years until 1932. They made numerous different models of .22 rifles during that time frame. At this late date its almost impossible to give a specific DOM for a certain rifle.
