Regarding the era of #2, DWM made these guns into the early '30's, maybe 1933, so that is the upper end.
I'm a bit uncomfortable with these no-numbers guns. Lots of explanations out there but I'd better leave that to others. But even if it is a sneak gun, or special contract, I'd not get too spendy on it as I doubt that it makes it worth a whole lot more. The magazine and holster helps.
It is amazing how uninformed sellers can be especially if it means hooking a big fish, so be careful and assume he knows more than he's letting on.
