1918 DWM with arsenal barrel re-work?

Takedown lever, Sideplate both DWM numbered with no Erfurt proofs. Upper receiver DWM proofed. There are no images of the toggle, but from the description, it is also DWM.

So far, a bunch of matching DWM parts placed on a matching number Erfurt frame with a mismatched Erfurt barrel.

The front of the frame appears ground, (see especially end of frame lug area directly above takedown lever). A good photo of the front of the frame showing the serial number would help to determine this. It looks like it was ground down and renumbered to match the balance of the parts.

This IS a strange one.
