No. All Lugers with the hold-open will have the pin hole, but the factory assembled/finished Lugers are so well done that you really have to tilt the frame this way and that under a strong light to make it out...It helps if you take it apart and eyeball where the pin goes through and then look under a magnifying glass to see it.
There is no other way to drill the hole; the opposite frame rail is in the way of drilling a blind hole.

As commented above, they all should have the Erfurt mark if they were retro-fitted...
Here's a good example of a pin hole in hiding...The top pic is taken straight-on; the bottom pic is with the frame tipped up...Both the same frame, but the hole only shows up if you know where it is...
I'm starting to remember all this now...
