Serial number suffix

Ken, I'd like to add a little to Herb's fine answer. When documenting your pistol's serial number, be certain to annotate that it's a DWM, 1916, serial number xxxx a and barrel length. It's a safe bet that there are other year DWM and Erfurt Lugers out there somewhere with your serial number and suffix letter. If only the serial number and suffix letter are used, there could be half a dozen Lugers - or more - that match.
