You see many pistols with these changes..WW1 Luger's so modified are many times Police. All that being so, it's possible your pistols never entered into this time zone. Perhaps captured and brought to the USA after or during WW1? Escaping any possible modification. Are they Germany marked?

Thanks Jerry, a little later than I thought. Both of mine are 1920 Reichswehr marked, no indication of police use, with no import marks.
