They could be just holes someone drilled out so water could drain out the mag easiler..

or they could be postbans with Parson floor plates and the date stamp drilled out.

Either way, as long as they are not dated/no date on them, they're legal.

It's on the mag body it's like the size of a pencile point, just the tip? there's 3 holes.

I just looked at the Parson mags that I have and they don't have any holes like you describe.  Either way, I can't see how they would effect the functionality.

These are shiny NIW mags that Chris bought from me.    I don't quite understand what it is that he is referring to but I offered to replace them if there is a problem.  These mags came from an original factory sealed case.  I looked at 25 of them and they are all fine.  I'd be interested to see a picture.  Here's a link to the ad and accompanying picture.  Best regards, Dave

Bubbles with little "holes" in the solid dry film lube are common.

Enjoy!
