New to luger question

Nothing stamped on the front of the grip.

What do you mean by 'police sear safety'?

You will find a spring steel bar riveted to the upper receiver above the sideplate. This was a police requirement that prevented the gun from firing once disassembled.
(Lugers can actually be fired when apart by pressing in the sear bar with your fingers)

Thanks for the info.
I'm wondering now if I should have this gun reblued or keep it as is.
