brazilian 1894 mauser serial number and other questions

I recently acquired a brazilian 1894 mauser rifle. It's made by DWM, not FN, which I've heard means its a navy model. Anyone know anything about this? Also, does anyone know where I can look up the serial number to find out what year it was made in? Theres no date anywhere on it, and all the serial numbers match (118) except the bolt (116). I'm not allowed to post pics of guns here, but I've started to sporterize it and love the 7mm mauser caliber. Seems like a good all around game rifle. Also if you can tell me anything about the Brazilian 1894 mauser that would be appreciated. Thanks ya'lls!
