Quite a nice Luger, pity for those indistinct inspection/proof markings on the right of the receiver.

These guns made by BKIW (DWM) if I'm not wrong were manufactured in 1927-28 years for a contract with the Riff Tribe in Morocco, but apparently this contract could not be honoured because of political considerations, and those guns with a blank toggle were probably delivered to the police.
Apparently they don't know for sure the exact number of pistols that were produced for the Riff tribe contract.

My 2 cents.

All the best
