Offered in this lot is a highly desirable DWM-manufactured 1920 Police Luger chambered in 9mm, bearing the unit marking S.B.13526 (for Schutzpolizei Berlin, followed by rack number) and retains its original police sear safety. This exceptional Weimar-era police pistol presents beautifully with an attractive finish showing only minimal signs of wear, including light edge thinning consistent with careful handling and age. The 4-inch barrel retains a frosted but sharp bore with strong rifling, while the pistol remains in excellent mechanical condition with the action functioning smoothly and as intended. The original grips are in great condition, exhibiting sharp, well-defined checkering and excellent overall eye appeal. All serial numbers are matching, including one matching magazine. Also included is a second non-matching magazine, a non-matching Luger tool, an original leather holster, and a highly desirable set of World War II-era capture papers. The inclusion of documented wartime capture papers significantly enhances the historical appeal of this already impressive police Luger package.
Police Lugers produced and utilized during the Weimar Republic represent an important chapter in German firearms history. Following World War I, many Lugers were retained for government and police service, often receiving police modifications such as the sear safety found on this example. Unit-marked police Lugers are especially sought after by collectors because they provide a direct connection to the organizations and agencies that carried them. The accompanying World War II capture papers elevate this pistol to another level of collectibility, providing valuable provenance and a tangible link to its journey from Germany to the United States. Combining matching numbers, a matching magazine, unit markings, police features, original accessories, and documented wartime provenance, this is an outstanding and historically significant Luger that would be a centerpiece in any advanced collection.
