Commercial Krieghoff?

[Tony S.]

I just got this gun from Mike Morris. Needless to say, he is a great person and has become a good friend of mine.
Anyway, I thought I share some of the peculiarities of this gun with you. It is a commercial DWM model 7.65 with the Crown/N, which by the way, it is larger than the commercial export proof usually seen. The crown has a cross above it, just like the commercial export, but the crown itself is different than the usual commercial export crown. It is elongated just like the early Krieghoff Commercial Crown/N. It is also marked with Krieghoff E/2 proof on the right side and under the barrel. The Stark magazine (Stark & Sohne Maschinenfabrik 1923-1935) has an E/46 (Simson proof only used in 1934). The other mag is a Schmeisser mag with E/2 proof and with the numbers up-side down. Both mags are numbered to gun as you can see, but different size character. Most of my information was obtained from comparing to other guns and a couple of books. Please correct me or enlighten me with your expertise. Does someone else have something similar to this Luger? Can anyone speculate the year of production?
Thanks, Tony S.
