Barrel identity?

Dear Luger Experts

Can someone identify this barrel (photo attached) that is mounted on a 1918 DWM, with no discernable markings? It appears to be about 4.5" long>

Thanks!
Jeff

Sorry but your photo is not clear focus enough for any kind of identification.

Perhaps this picture is better(?)

My best guess is that it is a gunsmith's special. It looks home-turned and does not follow the usual Luger barrel profile

I concur. This is a custom made barrel that has had the heck polished out of it... a real buffing job...
