Thanks for your comments. Please correct me if I am wrong.

My Luger started life as a commercial (no date on the receiver & made in germany under the barrel) Mauser (shape of the frame) serial number 788.
There is no way to learn the production year.
Somehow after WWII, DDR got it, changed the original with a DWM toggle, stamped number 88 on the new toggle, changed the grips and dip blued it (color variation on the back).
Thatâ??s how my VoPo is born.
