The little dots are peened out East-German markings. They were removed after import in order to disguise the fact the guns were imported from a prohibited source at the time.

Interarms imported several batches, paid for in US currency that was much needed by East-Germany at the time. The guns were basically smuggled across the iron curtain in the 1970s.
