My NYPD M&P from 1946
Received history letter yesterday and was very pleased that my gun is a NYPD gun. But there are still some questions open to me, anybody here has a clue what the markings could stand for? I know the number is a factory production number worthless for indication, but the rest? Roy Jinks didn't recognize them. To me it looks like RBf or R3f and below 4 KO.
And, as I am very interested in the history of my gun..is there a way to find out who got it at NYPD, sadly no shield number or anything like that on the gun, only the serial number.
The German proof marks from the city of Ulm indicates that it came to Germany not later than 1983 and then someday to Austria where I bought it.
Sorry for the poor picture, will take better ones from my M&P soon. Thanks for any help in advance!
Best regards from Austria, Haff
