A DWM tool was not marked, so ensure it meets specifications (i.e. not a big thick / repro one), and don't get an eagle 63, eagle 655 or anything from the weimar or nazi era...

Aluminum bottoms were first used in the 1920's, so unless your pistol has rework marks from the Weimar or Nazi period, only wood based ones would be correct.
