Q1: Does Spandau proof always come with Spandau toggle link?
Q2: Gortz and Walter said "surely.... Spandau guns were caninibalized from damaged guns during a time of great stress -- the great Spring Offensive of 1918".... no further explanation in the article though.... why 1918?

Initially, I guessed samples having 1918 on chamber.... but on second thought, that does not explain why only 1918 guns were damaged.

All DWM Lugers were proofed by inspectors which were stationed in Spandau. Spandau is a small city near Berlin where the DWM Lugers were made.
Answer for Q1: The Spandau proof we are talking about has nothing to do with the Spandau toggle
