Regarding value, these don't bring more than most police marked pistols, but they are more interesting than most. To retain full value it should have at least one matching mag, spine stamped with unit mark.

Dwight,
I have a commercial DWM stamped with police markings, unit and unit # on the grip strap. The mag is stamped with the same unit # on the bottom as is stamped on the gun. Was it common for them to do this. I always thought the mags should match the guns serial#.
