Anyone know if this is an importer's mark ?

Thanks for the comments Ron. The gun doesn't carry any police mods and the stamping is so irregular it looks amateur, but for the quality of the punch used. There are a few other attempts at striking the E and H on the backstrap.

Maybe someone's initials, but why try to put them in so many places ? I suspect they're reasonably old as they are under the reblue, which I believe to be older itself, based on the patina and wear.

I'll ry to get some reasonable pictures to post, but I think I'm ruling out import marks right now.
