Late Mauser small parts bluing

In looking at the color corrected photos, most of the contours and edges look pretty good. The thing I find most disconcerting is what David pointed out, the "satin" appearance of the frame, particularly on the right side. But it doesn't show up nearly as satin on some of the close up shots so I don't know what to think. Sure would like to have gun in hand. Perhaps photos taken on a neutral background in natural light might help.
