I realize that this post began almost five years ago but to set the current thinking right, Dr. Geoff Sturgess in his now two monumental three volume works Pistole Parabellum (co-authored by the now late Joachim Gortz) goes to extreme lengths, comparing almost part by part, dimension by dimension, measurement by measurement, concluding that Vickers did indeed manufacture the Vickers luger and ended up losing large sums of money in the process. It is questionable that ANY DWM parts found their way into the Vickers luger.
