No date police luger

I was visiting a friend and he mentioned that his uncle left him a luger and wanted to know what it was and worth. I am not up on police Lugers so I did my best but would like any thoughts about the gun.

It is all matching except magazines and the toggle pin is not numbered.

Magazines

I think you have a 1929 Police luger.
They serial number looks like 3137 t to me.

The blank toggle must be a replacement part.

It looks like the magazine safety was removed - that slot looks welded up to me.

It's in the correct serial number range to have a blank toggle. What some folks call a "sneak" police. The slot in the frame is open, not welded. Looks like a nice gun. Pretty Luftwaffe sword as well. The grip strap is marked for the Landjagerei police in Kassel, gun number 156.

The Luger is generally referred to as a "Rif" Luger which were part of a cancelled contract from a rebel group in Morocco. Most were diverted to police use and can be distinguished by an unmarked toggle, right receiver army WaA66 acceptance (c/N civilian proof left receiver) and Alphabet Commercial t and u suffix serial numbers. I believe the rear toggle pin would not be numbered but the original.
