Although it doesn't appear to follow the regulation marking instructions, I would also read it as Infantry Regiment 64, Company 1.

Markings were done by unit armorers who didn't always follow the marking regulations so there are many variations in the manner in which items were stamped.

However, after looking at entries in Jeff Noll's books, the markings on your Luger are consistent with many others and are not wrong. What is unusual is that it doesn't have a weapon number such as "J.R.64.1.K.7." to indicate the 7th weapon in that unit's inventory.
