You're probably correct. There was a circular directive from the Reichs and Prussian Interior Ministry in June 1936 requesting reports by 1 September 1936 on the effectiveness of sear and mag safeties. This may have been prompted by prior complaints about the mag safeties and have led to discontinuing installation of mag safeties on the P08s being prepared for the Gemeindepolizei in late 1936.
