Another question for you folks.....
It's really difficult to tell as there is none left to be seen, but did the receiver and sideplates have a case-hardened finish?
I ask because under really close examination, it "ALMOST" looks like the slightest remnant of a darker section of casehardening on a area of the receiver.
