I've been trying to find out what the JP stands for by doing web searches and came up with some answers but I'd like to know if anyone here knows for sure.

Nothing for sure, but it sounds like a police agency / unit weapon number.

Yes, several police forces have been thrown out there but I thought if there is an importer on this forum they could say for sure.

We saw one several months ago with a rack number decal in Arabic. One rumor is Jordan.

Royal Hong Kong Police Department have traded the last of their Model 10 SmithWesson .38 for Glock 17 9mm Some 8,000 units that are being referbished. i believe that is what your are seeing

RHKP followed by a rack number on the backstrap is typical on a Model 10-7.
