The 5/11 is 5th month of 1911. Generally, the date was used in conjunction with unit markings to denote when, and to which unit and/or branch of service the rifle was issued.
Yours appears to be missing the unit marking, unless it's just out of the image...

I believe it's missing the unit marking (I'm just going off the sellers photos). Would this be by accident or does it mean the rifle wasn't issued down to the regimental level? It's weird it has a date though!
