DWM Krieghoff

It is known that DWM sold a number of 1920 commercial P.08's to Krieghoff. Three models, or versions, are said to exist, the most common is dated 1921 over the chamber, horizontal C/N left side of receiver, GERMANY usually stamped on right of receiver. Of course, KRIEGHOFF SUHL with the bad die stamping of one of the "F"s on the back of the frame is a hallmark. My questions

1) is it known how many were processed through Krieghoff (Aarron says about 100),(2) was there a serial range (mine is 6938 "i"--all were supposed in the "i" suffix), and (3) were the clip bottoms wooden (mine is commercial "GERMANY" stamped) or were they stamped with the proper "i" suffixed serial number?
