Marvin, Good Morning! Reference your knowledgable information on subject, the point that the firearm was used by police in the era mentioned got my attention. As usual, I'll willingly reveal the depth of my Luger expertise (about 2"). Please provide more info on police lugers. I have heard that the sear safety was often removed from the guns for military use, and that the sear safety was a definite indicator for police use. I was not aware that a sear safety could be added to a military or commercial gun for police use. And using the timeline of it was a police pistol, it was dated 1920, it was not used by the military therefore it was used by the police, is there any way of knowing what types of guns were used by what kind of police (city/state/SD)in the era referenced? Thanks for your reply in advance.
(Bottom line: I've got a 1918 police erfurt, would love know more about it)
