Gerben,
The Westfalen police school was located in Muenster and, in the mid-20s, the marking for that school probably was changed to P.M. Unless your overcooked relic shows evidence that the mark was canceled, it probably means that the gun was lost, or at least removed from police service, before it was re-marked. This would explain the lack of sear or mag safeties. I have a q-block Alphabet DWM with P.M.477. and no sear or mag safeties.
If you ever coax a weapon number out of the rust, I'd be very interested in knowing it to add to my database of police unit marks.
