1920's DWM Commercial RC?

Serial num 7961 with no letters. All numbers match even the 2 magazines. The magazines are not wooden, the base looks like a bare matal. It has been re-blued and has a large X stamped on the left side of the frame. On the underside of the barrel there is a very small proof that looks like a crown with a letter below it...W? Same proof is on the left side of the frame. The extractor has an electro-pencil number on it that does not match the pistol. It looks like there was an import stamp on the front of the grip but someone tried to remove it. Enought of the stamp is gone that I cannot tell who the importer was. No wartime German proofs are present. I was wrong, there is no Germany on the front below the barrel...it is just the serial number. Does not look like a wartime Luger so how did it become a Russian capture? Still debating wether it is worth the price or not.
