I have recorded quite a few guns with a one-, two- or three-digit number on the left barrel flat where your gun has the 7.

56213 11 153 Annotated.jpg

142699 04 V in circle, W.K. in oval, 57 annotated.jpg

149899 02 J.G. in oval, 16 annotated.jpg

156491 04 V in circle barrel steel, J.G. in oval and &, 13 annotated.jpg

Very likely no one left alive knows the meaning of these numbers.
