Nice!
I am confused. I thought always the marking for this Regiment was KAGGR1.
Is there a listing of all unit markings somewhere online?
I could not find anything.

I think that th best source of unit markings is Jeff Noll's great book "The Imperial German Regimental Marking". Wealth of information.

1.G.G. signifies: 1. Garde Grenadier Regiment, which has the honor name of 1. Kaiser Alexander Garde Grenadier Regiment source Gortz German Small Arms Markings page 40.
The information is in a book.
