All the 1914 DWM artilleries are 3 digit serial numbers with no suffix letter. The people who fake them will take a 1915 or 1916 gun and change the date to 1914 because they bring more money. Look at the side profile of the top of the chamber. some will be dished where the number was taken off and re stamped.

I wish. I am working at Morphy auctions now. I see a ton of good guns and a ton of bad guns. We have 88 lugers and 4 Borchardts in our next auction at the end of the month. We have a very nice collection of Lugers coming to market in our April auction. The best Dutch gun I have ever had the pleasure of handling and a few other rare guns.
