can't help with the markings. produced in 1924, variation V1, last year for the rifle weight barrel in the 99H. The 1925 H, variation V2 was the first use of the medium weight barrel on a 99. I have a 1925 99G with the lightweight barrel and had a 1926 99G with the medium weight barrel. 1926 seems to be when the other models went to the medium weight barre.
