There can be a fair variation in the depth and tone of bluing on these guns. It took them some time to perfect the process, and then they had to deal with wartime demand and shortages...

This one is a particularly nice example.

SN "892y"... Check inside the side trigger plate for the number "9"...

BTW, it's easier to judge the finish if the photos are shot in natural shaded sunlight rather than flash. This and the white background could be contributing to the appearance of the bluing.
