The only marking on the toggle is "81", matching the last two digits of the serial. The main pin in back is also marked 81. There's no other makers marks on it...no dates, no logos, nada. Unfortunatly the stampings on the right side of the frame do seem to be a little buffed, or lightly struck

I can't make out the 3rd marking, but there is definitily something stamped there...eagle with a 6 under it, WAA 66, and then some other stamping, in order from back to front on the right side. Then, of course, the straw eagle, I guess it could be called? On the barrel, in-line with the receiver markings.

On the top of the Luger, literally, the only marking is that 81 on the piece where a manufacturer's logo/mark would normally be.

Could I be that wrong?

Erp, edited - the extractor is also stamped 81, so...yah, only two markings on the top are the 81's on both extractor and on the toggle.
