I have or have had a Borchardt with a hole in that location. I believe that it's just a screw to cover the hole. Under the hole would be a another screw in the top of the firing pin in line with the sear notch. As you turn in the screw you shorten the contact of the sear from the underside. Or at least that's how I remember it.

Tomorrow I'll check and see if I have one so modified.
