Morgan, sear safety only police pistols are not uncommon. They are thought to correspond to the 1932 to 35 era when the magazine safety was out of favor and the police ranks were rapidly expanding. Many are not unit marked and it is a reasonable speculation that they were being issued to the early Nazi police forces. There is some liklihood, I think, that these are the most likely original SS pistols.
