Hi Tom, Welcome to the forum! The 1911 DWM you have posted looks to be all original and bears a rather rare unit mark on it's front grip strap. W.R.S.178 stands for Württembergische Reserve Sanitäts-Kompagnie, Waffe Nr. 178, a medical unit. If all numbered parts match you can comfortably offer your friend $1,500, or even more if you are feeling generous.
Regards, Norm
