Without a light box, it's not easy to create high quality gun pictures. The unit mark (II.T.D 118.) does show halo, but it's not easy to see from those pictures. The replacement grip panels do not fit well. We can see rust and pits (?) along the edge of the grip. The grip front strap also shows light rust.

As John mentioned earlier, the numbers on receiver and toggle tail were not original. The basic assumption of "reworked gun" may explain that. The question mark remains: it's reworked, but how do we know it's a factory reworked gun or not? Probably no way to tell.
