Ed,
Your Luger was a military issue in 1914. Unit marks stamped on the grip strap of some military Lugers is the only way to determine which unit it was issued to. Are there any stamps on yours? 1920 is a Reichswehr property stamp (not a date). The sear safety and magazine safety were added after WWI for Police service.
