Need help with unit marking on shoulder stock

Have a luger shoulder stock with the markings J.R.1.66.3.3. The last 3 is very small compared to the other markings. Was wondering which unit this stock belonged to. Would appreciate any help given.

It appears to be J.R.168.3.3. which would be Infantry Regiment 168, 3rd Company, weapon # 3. Infantry Regiment 168 was a Hessian unit.
