Hello Balder,
This is quite a list! I hope you can persuade Mr. Fjeld to add the details of the guns. Many collectors would be interested and, in some cases, it may help identify the markings. Here's my best guesses at some of the police markings:
B.S. 51 (and several other B.S. marked) - May be Braunschwigische Schutzpolei but more info about the marking and the guns is needed
Ã?? - ?
S.L.Pol. 1940 (X-ed out) - S�¤chsische Landessicherheitspolizei, weapon # 1940
Pw B - Polizeiwehr Bayerns
5.K.I.31 - If the 5 is really an "S", this is the Schutzpolizei of the administrative district of K�¶slin in Pommern province; otherwise, it is probably a military marking
L.G.Ri. and also on the same gun: S.L.Pol. - The first marking was S.L.Pol. and it has the meaning discussed above. The pistol was transferred to the Saxon Gendarmerie and re-marked by the Landgendarmerie at Riesa.
P.C.5 - ?
S.L.266 - May be an early mark of the Schutzpolizei of the district of L�¼neburg. Need to know more about the gun and marking.
S.P. D. - S�¤chsiche Polizei Dresden
I'm sure there is a story behind these pistols. It appears that a lot of German police, or at least their weapons, were brought to Norway. Anything you can learn from Mr. Fjeld about this would be very interesting.
