The French occupation military destroyed the old Mauser factory records in 1946 I think, which would also have been the location of any DWM records. Erfurt's factory machinery and records were inherited by Simson under the Treaty of Versailles, and Simson property had been " transferred " to Mauser by the Nazi govt.
So, c'est la vie !!
However, there are some board members who have alot of info somehow, and there are the Still authored books with lots of info of dates and numbers.
