I see both Johns and Doubs points, but unless the gun was stolen (prior or during the war), it is hard for me to believe that ANY of the police models would be sold commercially. Especially since the safeties were put on during the mid to late 30's when the "police" needed them most.
And I know y'all think I'm prejudiced but if I remember correctly, and this is splitting hairs, that Jan said that </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,Geneva">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,Geneva">there was a directive requiring deactivation of magazine safetys, only clipped safetys are proper...</font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,Geneva">I think there was more to the statement, at least we have talked about it. That, just like the artillery's that snuck through (there was a directive to have ALL of them turned in also after WW1), that it is more correct to have them clipped, but does not mean they are fake.
