Yes, It appears to be the alphabet series. The whole serial no. is 9702m. This was made from the last quarter of 1923 til the start of 'n' series in mid 1924. Your's would have been towards the end of the series, so probably spring of 1924.

I have one just like it, 200 numbers lower. Mine is a 7.65mm aka .30cal Luger. To check this see if a wooden pencil, the eraser end, will go down the muzzle. If a 9mm, it will pass easily. If 7.65 it will be tight or not go at all.
