Robert, the fact that there is no sear safety and that the holster is a military holster strongly suggests that this Luger was transferred to the military early in the Nazi era. The lack of a sear safety is also conistent with other recorded Pw.B. Lugers (HWIS, Table 16-9). It seems likely that the Lugers were transferred to the military and the Sauer M1913s remained with the police.
I wouldn't worry about the different fonts used on the mags. This pistol served for 25 years and surely had replacement mags.
For my database, may I know the serial number and letter suffix of this pistol?
