1920 dwm

FYI, I have 2 DWM with markings as indicated:

1920 rear toggle pin is marked with last two serial numbers, grips unmarked.

1921 rear toggle pin is marked with last two serial numbers, grips are marked.

Both guns have unmarked three flute striker pins, indicating a later replacement part.

Both guns appear original parts.

Thanks for posting; I love the Reichswehr era weapons as there were not many made.

Thanks for the insight. So, this piece would have been produced in 1920 and has a Type II Army magazine from 39/40? Sounds like the magazine should have been one with a wood base with the corresponding serial number?

I don't see much discussion of these produced for the Army. Seems much more discussion of commercial models during this time period.
