A friend has a 1920 production DWM 9mm. All appears correct, original, and matching, including 2 correct magazines.

Here's the question. On the front gripstrap, it is marked "S.D. VIII" then "S.H." but those last two letters are "x"ed out. Then on the next line, "3.82. AL." These marks run vertically, in the same direction as the grip strap. Any clues?
Thanks for your time.
