We can read there only about weapons of the Reichswehr (Army and not the Police).
I do not know why Police Lugers should have had a 1920 stamp at that time- they should/ may have had unit/ Police stamps.
There are many more historical reasons that Police Lugers in 1920 do not got the 1920 stamp- allone my poor English does not allow to discuss them.

Klaus, please see this thread (http://luger.gunboards.com/showthrea...property-stamp) and page 855 of the new Görtz & Sturgess book (Simpson edition). The order from the Preußische Minister des Innern was issued on 4 September 1920.
