SU 25 is a stamp sometimes claimed as a rework or simply a issue stamping.

This was an early 1908 (stamped with proofs and acceptance as expected on the left) and then the gun was modified with a hold open; this is shown with your picture of the acceptance marking on the right of the frame.

Then stamped with 1920 reichswehr property stamping; thats not a date and then went into police service at soem point.
