Welcome to the forum!
You will really need much better photos than these for an opinion. These are thumbnails, which cannot be enlarged for better detail. Please include chamber date, if any and the serail number.
All I can tell from what you have provided is that your gun is a DWM.

Based on the acceptance and test proof your DWM Luger was most probably manufactured in 1920 or 1921 for the Weimar military or police.

I agree and it should have 1920 or 1921 stamped on the top of the chamber.
