NO, NO, NO
Old information and not correct

1920 is not the arsenal remarking - see the FAQ to read about the 1920 gov't marking

It would have been re marked whenever the unit changed or the gun went to a new police unit, could have been 1928 (or other date, sure not 1920).

Was the barrel shortened? if frame was DWM, then yes
