thanks to all of you, appreciate your time and responses.
Jerry, astute observation, based on the picture, however the spring is still there but reading your comment I immediately looked up and didn't see the spring end---panic. As I picked the gun up though I could see it was just shadow. took the TD lever out anyway to make sure.
Alvin, This is NOT a minty piece (and I have a lot of trouble estimating the amount of bluing on them anyway) and I think your assessment is well worth considering.
Thanks again fellows.
Gary
