Reading through Sturgess' book...

In 1900, the DWM agent in England was Vickers, Son and Maxim Ltd

Contracts with Vickers are documented with the Netherlands into the early 1920's.

By 1927, the Versailles treaty inspectors were withdrawn, and the Dutch were free to deal directly with DWM in Berlin.

The Versailles treaty followed by WW-II would have suppressed much of the market for the Luger in England through the end of WW-II.
