What are marking on this DWM

[Lugerdoc]

If you will note of page 320 that Datig has the 1908 Venezuelan and the Spandau flaged with and asteris, but without explanation. I ASSUME that this would indicate that their validity is in question. I also find it interesting in this early listing he doesn't show a true military Kreighoff production, but does show 3 variations of KH marking on DWM made lugers. I'd be more apt to believe the Indonesian connection, rather than a Venezuelan contract. TH

Three lines under that is a 1908-14 "SS"(?) 9mm, "DWM" or "Erfurt", dated or undated, "Death's Head" over chamber...*Without* an asterick...

I have to wonder "What was he thinking???"...
