DWM P08 Regimental Markings

[Saprengr13]

Hey everyone, I just acquired a 1909 DWM P08 with some interesting regimental markings. I haven't seen others in quite the same layout. I'm having a problem trying to decipher exactly where this pistol was assigned. If anyone has any information or a good reference source, I'd greatly appreciate the help. Thanks!

With the added advantage of specialist knowledge originating in the country of origin. I´ve always found that so much can go wrong in transit.
