1917 Navy?

Since it is dated on the receiver, shouldn't ALL numbers be in the military style? That's why I commented on both the side plate and TD lever. TD lever is numbered in the commercial style and if there is any number at all on the side plate, it is in the commercial style as well.

Imperial Navy Lugers dated 1916 and 1917 are numbered in the commercial style. See pages 124, 139 and 141 Central Powers Pistols.
