Thank you for the translation. It's pretty much what I got out of it but with my language skills I'm never sure!

It's possible, of course, that Mauser made up a "K" date LP-08 (using an old barrel) for testing but I seriously doubt it. The rear sight is of the 1917 - 1918 type without the fine-tune feature. My *guess* is that it's a late-war DWM. Unfortunately, what you see is the extent of the available information in the book.
