Welcome to the forum. Nice Pistol. If I may suggest something; You have active rust in several areas of your pistol. (areas like the checkering of the takedown lever). I recommend that you take fine brass wool or a brass brush and brush these areas with a light oil, Also, the grips look like they have recently been cleaned with a powerful solvent. They need to be treated with lemon oil or other wood preservative. Your gun and (possibly) the stock look original.

The leather holster and straps, etc, your takedown tool and your cleaning rod all look like reproductions from your photo.
