There is no logical reason to have drilled these holes, unless it is some attempt at a gas relief system. The gun may have been de-milled at some point. Regardless of the reasoning, the breechblock is now significantly weaker than stock.

I agree with those who recommend a very careful approach to firing this gun. Close-up photos of all angles of the breechblock would be helpful.
