Before internet, even Gale Morgan restored pistol could have wrong finish on small parts, e.g. supposed strawed trigger, he fire-blued it. The reason... B&W pictures on publications filtered out many details, and no book has text description. He probably made a guess on finish based on the finish of more commonly seen variations.
After internet, lots of things have changed. Everyone made some progress.
