<strong>Hello,

Now for the part I need help with...
The grip strap is marked S.L. POL. 1892. What does this mean? POL? Is that Police or Polezei?

</strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,Geneva">Hello!

I think it is a police marking of the time of the Weimar Republic, the first German democracy.
The S.L. stamp is in my opinion a stamp for the "Schutzpolizei L�¼neburg", the police units of L�¼neburg, a town in Germany. The POL stamp could be also stand for the police "Polizei".
The 1892 is the weapon number.
The 1920 stamp is a property mark, as Edward Tinker wrote.
I hope I had helped..
