Your pistol has a Police sear safety. It's unusual to see the Crown G on the chamber. It did not originally come with the aluminum bottom magazine..the wood one it came with was replaced by this one when it went into Police service. It was issued with 2 maybe 3 matching magazines with aluminum bottoms.. #1 was the primary mag and #2 and likely a #3 have gone AWOL.
I have seen quite a number of Police pistols that went through a refurbishment either by Simson or Mauser. Does the firing pin have flutes? Is it numbered to the pistol?
Is the toggle pin numbered?
It is likely that the pistol was refinnished when it went to the police for modification to a service pistol.
