Most were assembled by BKIW from left over DWM parts when they went out of business in 1929.
BKIW was DWM. They never went out of business. After the 1929 takeover of DWM, the new owner, the Quandt Group, decided to rationalize small arms production and initiated the transfer of equipment from Berlin to Oberndorf.

The 'sneak' was a small contract for Moroccan Insergents at the Riff area. Because of the political sentiments, DWM chose to omit any maker's mark. Then the decision was made not to deliver these guns and they were sold to German police instead.
