    One of the German Proof Marks in the format of 2 capitol letters, is the code for year of manufacture. If you will give it to us, one of our folks will help you with DOM.

    hi,
    i am not sure what proof mark means but on the right of the gun, located on the closed ejection port is de some symbols then bc.
    next the serial number is carl walther ulm/do made in germany.
    nothing else except the already mentioned serial number.
