Default 1911 Erfurt unit marked to...

Hi All,

I just saw a 1911 Erfurt that is unit marked as follows: "106.R.5.6." . The italics are mine, I did this to ensure the period after the 6 is clearly apart of the unit mark.

I am guessing something like:

1) 106th (Prussian) Regiment, 5th Battalion, 6th weapon
2) 106th (Prussian) Regiment, 5th Battalion, 6th company
3) None of the above.


Also, is there a significance to the trailing period after the 6?
