I've heard this said a lot, but I''ve not seen it go all black. I have seen seen straw faded to white, faded to tarnished, faded to gray, faded to speckled spotted, faded to dark brown, but I've never seen straw faded to pure shiny black like this takedown lever. Also the trigger always ends up with lighter/white/gray on the front part where your trigger finger touches it, especially on a gun with this much wear (can't really see that in these pics however).
