History help 1916 Luger

Well, it was a DWM WW1 gun originally, later stamped as gov't property (1920). The book guys will tell you what the unit markings SDI represents, but that little stamp over the 9 in 1920 has my eye.
Photos of the entire gun may help us access value, but be patient, those markings will be explained, or at least debated to death, a bit later.
Markings withstanding, and given the photos, I'll guestimate $1200-$1500 for retail value, but that is admittedly way premature here.
