Police safety sear?

ahhhhh, that one Pete... Unsure, but this one also has a "rack" number on the rear. Although only the dutch guns truely have a 3rd or 4th number to differentiate it, my feeling is that another gun in the unit had a serial number almost matching, thus the four digits on the side-plate.
Pete, when will you be in the denver area next? I owe you at least a steak dinner?

Steve, I specifically collect weimar police, and in my opinion, a nice 95-97% weimar police (imperial reissue or new manufacture) with one matching mag will still be several hundred dollars less than a one matching mag WW1 gun. Even if both were, say 1916 DWM's... (one a police reissue, the other untouched, although the chances of it having been issued to the army at that time is pretty good.)
