Hello all,

Just bought a shooter Luger today, well picked up rather than bought. I got it from a pawnshop in my hometown, the price was a little hefty but worthwhile for an 'impulse' buy I suppose. It's a mismatched gun with a reciever date of 1921 and a DWM toggle assembly. The serial number looks to be a 6803. It has been reblued I was told. However it is a nice looking gun with wood checkered grips and a wood bottomed magazine which I cannot make out the serial number on. The grip of the gun has some inscription, 16./J.R.21. With a superscript of 36 next to it, can anyone tell me what this means?
