Hi Bob,
It's hard to tell from your photos. A clearer photo of the right side showing the end of the hold-open retaining pin and small inspection stamp will tell for sure. Early guns like yours (and mine in the photo below) were retro fitted with the hold-open device and the exposed end of it's retaining pin was left unblued and the small inspection mark, which was stamped through the finish, should show halos. If the pin has been blued and the inspection mark doesn't show halos, then the gun has been reblued.
Regards, Norm
