Hi Marco and welcome to the forum.

The pistol was probably used throughout World War II.

I notice that you left a space between the W and the 115. Is it really an empty space or something crossed out?

To add to what Ron said, W.IV. indicates the pistol was from either the Spandau or Zehlendorf districts of Berlin.

I collect data on these police marked pistols and would appreciate knowing the serial number and suffix of this one and whether or not it has or had sear or mag safeties.
