I'm new to the site today, please forgive neophyte questions.

I think the maker is DWM. Serial number is 8_ _8, with _8 numbers on other parts. All match. Chrome plated. Clear grips. Shoulder hoster with a pocket for extra clip.

Uncle was a sargeant in US 28th at Bastogne. Captured there.

He also found a WWI sword LF&M 1918 plated, with strap hangar.

Can anyone help me with date of manufacture? A local man said it was made in WWI, probably an 'artillery' model, with shortened barrel after peace?

Thank you very much.
