Yes, probably by the police in the early 1920s since the long-barraled LP08 was unwieldly for police work.
The lack of a sear or mag safety as well as the cancellation of the police property marking indicates the gun was originally reissued to a barracked Schupo unit that was transferred to the military in the mid-1930s as Ed has suggested.
