I'm guessing that they are ivory inlays. The interesting thing is that they are located just about where the screws for the wood scales for an Ideal shoulderstock/holster grips would be placed. I don't think that was the purpose, the grips are too thick to attach to the Ideal metal backing plates, but it is an interesting coincidence nonetheless.
