Dan,

A clear photo of the left side of the frame just above the grip would help clarify whether this gun had a magazine safety or not. This device required cutting a narrow slot up from the bottom edge of this rail. See the attached photo. From your photo, it looks as if there was one that has been filled in. The photo below also shows the notch in the upper left of the grip panel that yours does not have.

By "back strap" I mean whatever you meant when you said above "the markings on back strap of pistol actually is the same as one on the holster." I'm really interested in seeing the marking on the pistol and I was surprised at the location I interpreted from your post. Nearly all police markings are on the front grip strap which is the front portion of the frame between the two wood grip panels. One very rarely finds this mark on the back side of the grip.

You are most welcome to use my posts.
