Ok, some more pictures coming up. There are fine tool mark in the recessed area in front of the right ear, right above the grip panel. Not sure if I managed to capture it in the picture, but they're like longitudinal grinding marks. Not so much in the ears though, you can see some milling swirl but not much. I can't really see any signs of bubba buffing, but then again: I don't know exactly what it looked like from the factory either.

I doubt that the sight is fire blued, the dovetail may look like it but the rest doesn't. The sight appears to be blued on the gun, and it seems to have the top of the dovetail part filed flush with the sight base. It also has a staked witness mark, like you would find on factory adjusted guns.
