In Martens and de Vries, pages 86 & 87, is the discussion about the parts. In part it says "After the adoption of the Luger pistol, the East Indies Army initially bought all of it's spare parts from DWM. Gradually, however, the Small Arms Arsenal in Bandoeng (Java) started producing Luger parts itself. Continuing they say that around the mid thirties, the Indies Arsenal was capable of making most parts of the Luger pistol, with the exception of the frame, reciever, breechblock, the toggle links, magazine catch, hold-open latch, the magazine safety and some important springs. On page 87 is a list taken from the official army manual of 1935 that shows all of the parts and where they were made.
