I think you've got a pretty nice 1911 DWM with interesting markings on the front strap.
While it's absolutely normal that your gun hasn't got the stock lug (introduced only in 1913), the hold open device was installed on the 1914 models and following, but many older lugers were sent to the Erfurt Arsenal to have it installed.
