Plenty of good videos on youtube to help show you how to take down your luger properly. Be sure to take clear, quality pictures and describe in detail symbols you cant seem to get clear pics of. Also recommend you choose from one of the large variety of Luger identification books out there, they will help you immensely. Believe me I have come a long way in just 2 months since I purchased my luger in January and still have a very long way to go.

Actually the circle N is present in the "well" of the frame that the take down lever passes through. This is a final inspection marking of DWM and not a proof mark.
Military lugers of WWI do not have Crown/N proofs, the C/N is a civilian proof.
