Supposedly DWM had supplied approximately 800 of an order of 1000 of the 9mm pistols for the Portuguese Navy when the monarchy was overthrown. The crown over the anchor was replaced with an R.P. for the Republic of Portugal. Doug Smith imported some of these pistols a couple of years ago. I believe he had both the Crown/Anchor and R.P./Anchor. The pistols Doug had for sale were well used, but the pistol you have appears to be as new. Nice and rare piece.
