From John Walter's Luger Book... "Zn. Above the chambers of P.08: probably 'Zielmunition' (i.e., suitable only for aim-training purposes). Many German rifles were also converted to use rimfire ammunition, often in conjuntion with barrel-liners. Note: claims that 'Zn' is 'a year code for 1927' (this was apparently 'M') or that frames are 'zinc' (chemical symbol Zn) are mistaken."
