Post OT: FN Model 1922, commercial or military?

Here is what appears to be a commercial FN Model 1922 in 7.65 caliber, serial number 30705 marked on frame, slide, and barrel extension. All markings and proofs are standard prewar and there are no military markings present. It has what appears to be a late war pair of military wooden grips which are in the same excellent 95% condition as the rest of the pistol. The magazine has a phosphated military finish with the FN logo and a very faint waffenampt. I can't figure out if this is just a grip and magazine mismatch, or was it appropriated for military use. Any opinions?
