P.08 manufactured in 1910 by DWM under contract for the German military. Receiver is stamped "1910" over the chamber, with arsenal proofs followed by an Imperial German reichsalder present on the right hand side. Imperial German Reichsadler is also present on the top of the barrel and left side of the breechblock. Matching numbers are present on the frame, locking bolt, sideplate, trigger, safety lever & bar, barrel, receiver, trigger bar, breechblock, firing pin, and toggles.
