1929 DWM Commercial to Weimar Navy service

I bought this one a week or so back, got the pictures done. It is an interesting piece for sure,
a "1929" commerical DWM in 9mm, formerly called a "sneak" Luger, sold to/acquired by the Weimar Navy and
navy marked.

Barrel has the C/N proof over the serial 9803(with ghosts) on the bottom; numbered in the Commercial
fashion. The grip is marked with M over an anchor, over N. 91. on the back strap. Matching except
magazine and the grips are not numbered. The left grip is from a grip safety model as it has the cut for same.

Nearby numbers of '29 Navy commercial models on D. Gruber's list are:
9257s with N.53; 9745s with N.69; 9923s with N.61; and 15t with N.73.

Pictures are below and comments welcome!

Also looking for a correctly marked magazine for this pistol; and a correct magazine for an earlier '06 navy- please PM me if you have something.
