Wow, thanks for the responses everyone!

As for the reason I thought it might be a police reissue, there is no reason other than my lack of knowledge. Would this most likely have been a military reissue?

Also, how are you able to tell it's an Erfurt takedown lever? Would it have been common practice to mix parts during reissue and restamp to match?

This is my first P.08. I've had a C&R for 20 years, but have stuck to old bolt rifles prior to this. I bought this to have as a shooter and to enjoy owning one of the finest and most historically significant firearms designs in history. With that said, I am curious what monetary value you would place on this.

Thanks again.
