There is extensive information about these pistols in Police Lugers.

Here is another oddball VoPo.

This is one of a handful of newly made DDR pistols which only carry the crown/N proof marks, no further markings, and only the serial number on frame, receiver and magazine.

1001 manufacturers marking on the frame rail.

'Police Lugers' is a very good addition to the Luger book library, this pistol is also shown in that book.
