Matt,

The "v" suffix was made somewhere in the September 1944 range. Due to the many unknowns for Spreewerke, this date could of +- 2 months, but this is close I think. One strange thing about the late Spreewerke pistols, you can get a decent finish this late in the war. I have always contributed this to the person/s or the shift that worked on them.
