Default Odd vertical hole in some vintage California custom grips

Attention Linde and -db-

This thread on a nice pair of Hurst grips got us on a side question about the vertical hole in one pair. What's it for??

Help me ID this "fuzzy" like grips that are not. Maybe Hogue or Hurst ?

We're not talking about the horizontal holes apparently to allow adjustment of the strain screw.
As I wrote in the other thread, the vertical hole looks like a drain hole as much as anything ... but couldn't be... (Squirt in oil until it runs out???)
One version of the L-Tronic battery powered night site had a bottom plug-in, but not in this location.














Anybody know anything?
