It might be an 08/20.......

These were made up post WW1 to comply with the Treaty.

They are in .30 Luger and have a three point something inch barrel. Apparently the Allies post WW1 were terrified of the thought of the German Army carrying 9mm Pistols with 4 inch barrels!

The 44 stamped everywhere would be the assembly mark.

The DWM is indicative of the use of "left over" parts in the production of these new guns.
