I agree with the above that this pistol doesn't have the Navy acceptance marking, but without inspecting it, I would not rule out it being a 1920s Navy type commerical (see "Lugers at Random" page 182) using up leftover 1st issue M1906 parts. Years ago I had a long frame standard sight, non-grip safety type commerical with a crown/M marked (on bottom) barrel, that was made from old parts at DWM in the 20s. TH PS: I do have some NOS front sight blades available.
