From my reference books there were only 2350 1939 S42 lugers issued to the police. The Mauser Banner police lugers were Banner commercials purchased by the police. I believe around 23000 were purchased. So you have a rare, hard to find police luger. I wouldn't say unique but definately rare. Probably more desired by police collectors or Mauser collectors. Congratulations you did good. Bill
