Depends on the era you prefer, i would go for the 1917 DWM as it has more history.
Some same that the mauser would be a better choice as a shooter at has newer meterolgical improvements since 1917.
Prices seem a bit high for almost no-blue guns.
I am not a "bore" guy, even if it is as a shooter, a sparkeling nice bore does not equate to accuaracy. I do like a nice bore, but when I buy, barely glance down it, I am more interested in the correct barrel, markings and configuration.
