I really don’t understand the original question…

I am unsure the other numbers end with 03. The “II” was the misleading part for me.

Sorry should have been more clear. I am wondering what the “II” means. If it’s a plant?post war?

the “ll” is a mis struck lower case ‘n’. serial # = 6203n.

That bolt pic confirms it as an n block, which is a unique block for 1944 that is theorized to have been created to use up remaining non-Kriegsmodell stocks and externally supplied receivers. Yours has a standard Mauser Oberndorf receiver but others in the block are use either Astrawerke or Mauser Borsigwalde receivers. Typically associated with a late 1944 production date and they follow the serial numbering convention on those small parts. Post some more pics of it if you can!

Very cool! byf44 n blocks aren’t that common compared to the ar44 and bcd4 receivers used in the n block. Here’s a thread with some more n blocks for you to compare to.

N blocks are a late war favorite of mine. I was going through a stack today and ran into this. I don't think I have posted it before.
