Jack the upper receiver, barrel and forward portion of the toggle is made by DWM in 1915. The lower grip frame, rear toggle and other parts marked "95" or "3695" are apparently made by Mauser in the WW2 timeframe before or during 1937 because the small parts are strawed "gold in color" and the Mauser "bump" on the rear of the frame.

A real nice looking shooter.

Which of these markings looks like the letters under the serial number on the frame?
