So, if the slot was welded then the finish could not be factory. However, I've got to tell you that all the maker marks and edges are sharp. I thought that whoever did it was smart as the sights are not nickeled. However, I misremembered and it was the hammer and safety that didn't get the finish. Such a finish would have been very appropriate in some locales.
