Attack Power (Destiny)

Apologies if this has been discussed, but I think I understand this number now. It's basically multiples of ten? For example, if your gun has 300/300 attack power, that means it'll do full damage to enemies up to level 30. If it's 280/300, then level 29 and 30 will get reduced damage.

Seems to bear out, as last night we tried the Vault and my Invective couldn't quite kill a Praetorian with one magazine. Upgraded it today to what I believe is the Praetorian level, tried to help some Guardians getting into the Vault, and it was blasting them apart.

A slash in attack rating means when you get a weapon it'll have the lower number and you can upgrade the attack to the higher number. As for relating to levels directly, I don't know, I know it's involved somehow because when you hover it it says so.
