Here is the 1916/1920 DWM. All the numbers match on the metal parts. The safety is still intact. The grip seems to have been replaced. There is no unit markings.

what do these mean?

Emo, can we get closer / larger pictures?

Serial number?

ref your pictures on the right, those are the proof and acceptance markings from WW1

I can get closer with my wife's camera. Not this one. As far as larger, I had to reduce to 300X225 before it would take them. Any tips?

Also, I made a mistake. it's Erfurt, not DWM. I had DWM on the brain after today's gun show.

it is the pixels, i.e. it is a good picture. But for monitor screens, anything over 78 dots per inch is overkill, so you can have a larger picture and still have plenty of detail.

I usually take the picture full megapixel size, then crop it down, then resize it.

I thought they were erfurt stamps! Did you just get it today?

it is nice, would be good in my collection too! Good find!

PS: These are about 53 kilobytes, so you can enlarge to the next pixel size if that is how you want to do it...

I got it Friday. I took those pictures Friday, but could not post them until today. I got it with a matching magazine, another magazine, holster and tool.
