Marcus; I can help with some of your questions. I have never read where some guns made in 1918 were stamped 1917. The made in Germany was added to guns exported after the war. A double date gun was stamped with the 20 to denote government property so it could be identified if stolen, or had not been turned in after the war. (hence, no 1920.
