Wartime made gun? The steel quality of small parts made in wartime is very questionable. At least on a few instances that I fired. e.g. I just fired 200 rounds from a pistol made during WWI, the safety lever was shaken broken -- that's right, it's not even touched in the process, just by shaking. Fortunately, the thing was not a numbered part. Military acceptance procedure could measure exterior physical dimension, but I doubt they measured the physical strength or checked hidden cracks on steel.

Or, is it a pre war instance?
