It's beginning to look like the French weren't the only Allies who required the Schupo to disable the stock attachments on police pistols before they withdrew their occupation forces (HWIS pp. 129-31 and http://www.historywritinsteel.com/New_Insights.html Item 11). The English may as well in Cologne.
