Bob,
I enhanced your photo a touch. I'm going to go out on a limb here.
ST. Could indicate Prison issue. I think this was a Prison guards pistol prior to being transferred to the Landjägerei.
SP. could be Spandau Prison(?). 106 is obviously a rack or weapon number. The G.M.H. is up for grabs when it comes to my limited knowledge and references. I did research German prisons of that period and didn't find any that correlated with G.M.H., so I think the SP. is the prison, if it is a prison pistol.
If I'm right, it's a scarce marking, and a neat one.
Ron
