Default acceptance stamps on Swiss 1900/06

The Swiss Lugers 1900/06 (DWM) had a variety of acceptance stamps of the Waffenkontrolle (arms control). At the beginning the pistols have the stamp of Vogelsang, in between no stamp of the Waffenkontrolle at all, later of Vogelsang together with a stamp of his successor Mühlemann and at the end only that of Mühlemann, but double (double Mühlemann) - this is generally known.

I assume that the pistols are stamped identically within the same order of the Waffenfabrik Bern (W+F) from die DWM. That would make sense and according to my observations, this is the case.

In 1911, W+F received 700 part sets from the DWM for assembly in Bern. The pistols in question are SN 13001 - 13700, all of which should have the Vogelsang acceptance stamp. According to Görtz and Sturgess (red books, page 553), however, the pistols from SN134xx onwards have the acceptance stamps of Vogelsang and Mühlemann. In my opinion, however, this only the case for the pistols of the subsequent series 13701 - 14515.

Question: does anyone have Swiss Luger 1900/06 (DWM) with SN between 134xx and 13700, if so what acceptance stamps are on these pistols?
