The nickel plated wood based magazine is likely contemporary with the gun. The blued magazine (is it an "FXO"?) is much later.

Thanx for the input. AFAIK, the finish is original. The bore looks good, too.
The question of value brings up another point. Is there enough value with this to worry about insurance rider? Should I shoot it, or would I be better off keeping it as pristine as I can?
