Police Erfurt with matching holster but mismatched bbl/receiver

Thanks RS,
that is the reason I posted it- different and interesting to me. Seeing a 1913 or earlier luger re-purposed to the Weimar police and maybe into WWII service is kind of neat.

Matching number police holsters do show up regularly- but I've not thought much as a % of rigs seen for sale. It has to be pretty low.

This is my second one matching a police pistol I own; many others are numbered but "loose".

It will always be mismatched, and its story probably lost to history; I did ask the seller if he had a "story" with it, but so far the only info was it was a consignment to him for sale. I asked him to refer the question to the consignor- so we will see if anything comes of the inquiry.
