Started out life as a 1918 DWM LP-08.
Simson barrel. Left marks: Simson eagle/6 inspection stamp from 1920; 1920 Simson Revisions-Commision eagle/RC.
Right barrel: Simson test proof, probably 1920; PTV "Police Armory" stamp (jury is still out on "Technical Police").
No inspection stamp on replacement rear toggle link, which is unusual.
4 is anomalous. The odd 8,84 land diameter could result from Simson manufacturing practices.
