Post 1911 Erfurt Police

Here is my pride and joy, bought it from another collector (one of the reasons I sold my 1916/1920 Police), it is on page 237 of Weimar Lugers.

It is an interesting piece, it is an all matching rig, (I know the book says it has two mags, but it has just the one)

It has a matching magazine, tool and 1941 Holster and is in really nice shape.

Overall, a nice early (2nd or 3rd month in production?) 1911 Erfurt, only 10,000 made originally, and I can't imagine there were very many made into matching police rigs (minus one mag I know) in 1941?
