Here is what I gleaned from Jan Still's Weimar Lugers book:

Weimar Alphabet DWM Luger

Upright Crown over N proofs
7.65mm caliber
3 5/8" barrel
Un-numbered firing pin
Unmarked hold-open
Un-number wood bottom magazine
Not marked GERMANY
Commercial serial number range are in the i, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r serial range
Primarily undated receivers
Some in the i suffix range are dated 1921
A few with 9mm pistols with 4" barrels were intended for military or police

Please correct me if I have posted erroneous information.
Please see Post #21 for additional information and clarifications. Thanks Dwight!
