Actually, the sear safety was designed by a man named Schiwy and these were retrofitted to police Lugers by police armorers beginning in late 1933 or early 1934. By that time, DWM/BKIW had transferred its Luger manufacturing equipment to Mauser. Lugers manufactured by Mauser for the police after this time had the Schiwy safety. DWM never had anything to do with them.
