Luger grip cutout

Ed, sure I'll post the pictures directly from now on.

As far as I know, this police luger wasn't discussed before, and actually it isn't even mine, but one for sale. I noticed other Lugers with this cutout on the grip and I didn't know what that was about.

This Luger is a double dated DWM, the first date being 1916, the second date being 1920.

Generally speaking, on the back side of some Luger left side grips, the material is sometimes broken out next to the safety latch. I was wondering if this cutout was a typical Luger grip issue. As pointed out, the magazine safety was once there, but removed.

My curiosity is now elevated on this converted police issue as I wonder if the asking price is fair or not. The gentleman wants about $1100 I believe.
