Hello Gentleman, I picked this up yesterday at gun show. I have been looking for one of these for sometime. And you will see why after a few pics. This one has crown N proofs and a 90 degrees safty position. I guess around 1936 it may have been made. I will check on that later. And you guys thought this was going to be just and old bayo  Steve,

Thanks, Billy. I don't believe the dealer knew what he had. There was nothing on his pricetag that even mentioned RFV. Nor did he point it out at any time as something of a rarity factor affecting price. As far as the holster, I don't even know if that's a legit Walther holster. There isn't a mark on it. I am also looking for a DRP to go with some of the postal bayonets. The ones that are known are PPK version and very scarce. I may find one by chance as I do some of the others, last year I found a nice military marked S/42 police Luger in about 98% condition. Some of these marked pistols are very interesting, I feel. One of our members here Dow has done some incredible work putting unit-marked imperial Lugers with unit-marked bayonets. And boy, he's got them real close My hat's off to him, it's a lot of work looking for those. Steve

Diplo matt,
most collectors believe it was a form of customs organization ( Reich Finance Adminstration ) I think a german word I have seen about this organization is Reichsfianzverwaltung. kind of like the US IRS
