You have references to back this statement up?

There is no way a DWM luger has inspection and final proofs and "no number". Numbers were applied before and during inspection , but certainly before final proof.

Without good pictures of the markings or in this case the area where they should be, it is not possible to say what the OP has.

I also take exception to the "often...taken home" part of your statement; it may have happened- but rarely.
