SEE the FAQ for pictures of Sear safety's

Police lugers can have replacement aluminum bottomed magazines, but you also find them with wood and aluminum bases (see pg xxx Police Lugers, serial # 724 as an example...oh sorry, its not printed yet )

Anyway, you can find them both ways, or just wood or jsut aluminum, it all depends on if the magazines gave out, then they would be replaced.

But, I am sure that is a police sear safety that I see... (mostly likely your magaiznes have a #1 and #2 also on the base)

To take the best pictures, use plenty of light, even cheaper digitals can take decen pictures in in-direct lighting such as light shade or by a window, but the sun not glaring on them.
