pre-WW1?

Thanks for the responses. Since my first posting I have discovered that this must have been owned by a near-sighted person--two of the parts have "56" rather than "36" stamped on them! Also no numbers on the firing pin--how many parts should have matching numbers?

I also know that it must be a 7.65 mm because nothing else seems to fit. Can 7.65 ammo be had reasonably easy and cheap? There are letters stamped on the parts in various places as well. Any insight on the letter stampings?
