Reichsbank PP box

Here's a box I had for a PP. Can anyone translate the stickers on it. Thanks for the help.

Regards,
Danny

Attention!
This case is only for the transportation and protection of the pistol when not being used on duty, absoultely not for having the pistol ready on duty.
While on duty the pistol must be accessible (not kept in the case)

I wonder if there is a story behind that.

It is interesting RK, obviously there must have been a habit of keeping it in the box, and once it was "needed".

Danny, I've seen Reichs Bank marked shoulder holsters before but not the box. Interesting. TH

Henry, great box, is that a leather mag. cover? Mine came with R.F.V. 1785w In it. Was the RFV part of the Reichsbank. Or maybe the other way around?

Its not mine but if you want it, its on Gunbroker for 4,520 with the matching pistol.
