IF the one in picture #10 is the reference.

The 1920 is a property stamp, not a date; DWM did not reach the "r" suffix in 1920 or 1921.

JMHO.

Don, I agree that it's not an antler proof mark.

However, DWM did produce military and police Lugers in the o - r suffix range in 1920. My reference is G&S red books, chapter 9, page 467.
