1916 DWM "R.I.R. 3 51" Markings

I just purchased this Luger, and on the front of the grip it has these marks. I was told that it meant "Reserve Infantry Reserve 3, 51st gun". Can someone confirm or give guidance.

Thanks,
Gary

Hi Gary, Your info sounds correct if the first R is cursive. Can you post a photo? Regards, Norm
