Das,

There are several tells in the photos. All of the rounded off corners indicate that it has been heavily buffed. The fact that the inside of the frame is not "in the white" indicates that it has been reblued. The shiny black finish indicates that it is hot blued and not rust blued. Although it has no collector value it might be a great shooter.
