I think that your best bet would be to examine the proof/acceptance marks on the barrel (one should be an eagle type mark, either imperial or Weimar style near the breech end, left side) these proofs when checked againist the reference on this site should tell you the origin era of the barrel. There are many possible combinations of proofs on guns from this era. You might also want to compare the eagle on the breech block to that on the receiver and barrel....in order to see if any or all are the same.
