Welcome to the forum!
Your pistol has a modern, Mauser made takedown lever. It is not an original military unit. I also believe that your sideplate has been scrubbed and force matched to the gun. Notice the telltale machining line near the right, upper side of the sideplate hump as well as the number "55" in a different font than the numbers on the side of the receiver.
It may just be me or the photo, but your trigger also looks odd. It appears to have been bent. It almost looks like the trigger on the original .45 ACP Lugers.
Your pistol once had a magazine safety as well, as the grips are cut for them.
With all these potential issues, I hope you did not overpay for this gun.
