Take care of those eyes, Buddy !

I just took a look at the gun. Several observations:

Code or Rejection star present so puportedly a military piece. Wrong grips. Trigger guard doesn't look like HK. No thumbprint on receiver.

And no bids on the gun. The last is probably the most telling.

I have been told this is a possibility, as several collectors of kriegs have told me they have seen 2 or 3.

There was one on Jan Still's forum:

I believe that like any Luger, there was the possibility they were used for police, but obviously not ordered enmasse for distribution.

Howard, I hope you are feeling better...

from John D; 11) The BIG question - Sear safety. Your's is the 5th reported - but the first I am aware of on a P Code Five Digit. Other example exist within other HK variations, but they are rare - and two others have been dicounted as "fakes". Again - if yours can be verified, it's would be the 5th example that I am aware of.
