If you can believe production estimates there were more LP08's manufactured by DWM in 1917 than all other years combined. The 1914 dated DWM LP08 is known only into the early a suffix range, and with the most of production going to the 4" model, the 5000 figure from Still is probably quite high for the 1914 DWM LP08. Possibly Erfurt was assigned production of the majority of LP08's as Erfurt produced more of the LP08's than the 4" pistols in 1914.
