All these pictures have soft focus that obscures the detail of the markings and surfaces.

I'm not a Navy expert, but I doubt that they could help you much without proper detail visible.

While this one could be right as they come, these Navy variations are faked reasonably often. I would not buy one without being able to verify it with someone familiar with Navy details.

There is a Navy serial number list available. What is the SN? I see the end of it as "?077a" from what I can figure out in the pictures.

In your third from the last picture, there seems to be quite a bit of finish variation between the breech block and the DWM marked forward toggle.
