With the action & barrel removed from the stock you should see a number followed by a . then anothe two digit number. The number immediately following the dot is the year of proof.
NP means 'nitroproofed'.
I believe but may not be correct the other marks are Austrian or German stamps.
1922 year of proofing



As above 1779.22 = 1922 year of proofing.
