Since I'm a virgin to Lugers, can you point out where it has been clipped? I have an idea but I really don't know since I've never seen an un-clipped mag safety.

BTW, I cowboyed in Stillwater Co for a while..........

I finally came across some photos showing where the mag safety has been clipped and this one has been clipped.

so, I have a 1915 DWM luger w/ army acceptance proofs, assigned to a MG Unit, later was reworked sometime after 1926 for police use adding the sear safety. Sometime after 1933 is was proofed by the nazi regime or the toggle was a nazi proof toggle replacement and given the mag safety also. The mag safety was clip around 1936/37. Am I close?

My mis-match magazine is numbered 818 and my luger ser# is 1011 so if you have mine and I have yours, well, ya never know.
