See this thread on Jan Still's forum about the n-suffix pistols: http://luger.gunboards.com/topic.asp...8&SearchTerms="n",suffix. Several more have been identified since that thread. I can't explain why DWM chose to use this suffix during their 1920 production of military and police Lugers but it seems very likely that they produced 9,999 of them. This one obviously went to the police. It should have the small parts numbered in the military style. I agree with Ron that there is nothing Nazi about this pistol. It is typical of the military/police Lugers produced by DWM in 1920-21 before the Allies made them stop.
