Bob,
That is a very gorgeous rig.
Looking at it critically for a moment, the bottoms of the magazines seem very unusual. they are an odd combination of Police and Imperial markings. Imperial magazines used the + to designate the spare magazine in a set; Police forces marked their magazines 1 and 2. An Imperial magazine base would include the serial number suffix. Also, to the best of my knowledge it was not the practice to stamp the Police weapon number on the mag base.
Many Police Lugerw were originally manufactured in .30 cal., then rebarrelled to 9mm in a Police armory. What we can see of the marks under your barrel intrigue me, is there any chance you could photograph all the markngs there, including the witness mark?
Its interesting to see that this gun has the E/WaW66 acceptance stamp. Its hard to tell from your pictures, is that a c/N proof on the left receiver?
