To add to Ed's thoughts on this subject is S/N 3623 with WaA66 and Weimar Eagle H proofs on the right side of the receiver. It was originally a Crown N proofed commercial pistol that had the serial number re-stamped in the military fashion on the takedown lever and side plate. Neither a sear or magazine safety were installed and the pistol is unit stamped P.S.393 for a police school on the front strap. This pistol is another of those that has had the alpha suffix of the serial number on both the barrel and frame over stamped with a 'crown'.
