Large numbers of WWI weapons were "forgotten" to be accounted for after the armistice.
They were never "officially" in the Weimar German government's hands, and were "re-discovered" later after the Allies lost interest in enforcing the Versailles Treaty.

My first Luger was purchased directly from the WWII vet who lived across the street from me when I was a teenager. And coincidentally, it too is a 1918 DWM with no additional markings other than what was original to it's WWI manufacture.
