DWM Police Lugers from the 1920 era represent a fascinating and highly sought-after period in German firearms history. Following World War I and the restrictions imposed by the Treaty of Versailles, many Lugers remained in government service and were subsequently utilized by German police organizations during the Weimar Republic. Police-configured Lugers featuring the sear safety are particularly desirable among collectors due to their specialized modifications, historical association, and connection to early 20th-century German law enforcement. Examples retaining matching numbers, matching magazines, original police features, and period-correct accessories such as the accompanying leather police holster are increasingly sought after by advanced collectors. This remarkable Luger offers an outstanding combination of condition, completeness, and historical significance.
