Okay,

Ehm. After reading some explanations and seeing the images, my first impression is that this pistol started off as a DWM commercial police version, could well have been a 7.65 version originally, which has been modified to give the appearance of a Krieghoff.

As Albert noted, the sideplate is a buffed replacement and I don't like the presence of signs of police modifications. I agree with Ron that the details are more in line with a DWM.

I think the problem is that the pistol has been built up using both Krieghoff and DWM parts.
