Robert, does your Luger have a sear safety? If so, it probably remained with the Bavarian state police through the war. If not, it may have been transferred, along with its owner, to the military in 1935. Also, does the holster have a police style (vertical strap & stud) or military style closure (diagonal strap & buckle)? More about these pistols can be found in HWIS Chapter 16.
