What do I have here?

Well it looks like the unit mark will remain a mystery for the time being. I tend to favour the police explanation as it is consistent with the magazine but that's only an opinion.
One other point that was cleared up elsewhere is the barrel proof - this is a Weimar crown/g marking and not an Erfurt proof as I had thought. The date of manufacture for this pistol is 1928. The last two observations are courtesy of Jan Still.
