Here are a couple SFPD marked 94’s that I don’t look right to me.   I didn’t think there was much faking going on with these so I could be wrong.  Do these seem like they are likely real to you guys?

The first one you listed is not marked like the rest of them. The second gun looks correct, and is marked like all others I have seen.

That was the main issue I had with them…..but, since the same seller has both, I was skeptical of the second since I didn’t like the first.   Plus, they are in much lower condition than the others I have seen.

I have asked the seller for the serial numbers, as that will help determine if they are original SFPD guns or not. Based on the pictures, the second gun looks OK to me at this point.

Appear that one of them is no longer on auction.  

Both guns are still listed.  The second link that SB posted had an extra digit in the auction number. I corrected it so that it can be accessed.

Bert,

Did you ever get the serial numbers?  Are they in the correct range?

Don,

Not yet. The seller sent me partial serial numbers with the last 3-digits “X” out. I explained to him in a reply email that I can not add them to my survey unless I have the complete serial number. The partial serial numbers he sent to me are in the known range.

Yes. I am now also of the opinion that both guns are authentic SFPD specimens.
