The stamp all the way to the right of the acceptance stamps, the one that is on all WWI Lugers, is what I referred to as the "cactus". I guess I wasn't thinking - I know better than that - I meant the "Imperial Eagle", which I believe is the correct terminology for that stamp.

Anyway, the mismatched trigger is a big concern for me too, as I try to only buy all numbers matching guns.

Ed - Are you saying it could have been refinished when it was reworked for police or Nazi service? To me, the finish looks amazing for having been in service from 1914 - 1945.
