Thought side plate might be a replacement myself, but then noted that the small '72' below the plate matches all the other two digit serials throughout the gun, so assume that it is the original. Guy I bought it from in his wifes garage sale says his Dad picked it up in France in the 50's when in the military, shot it a few times and then wrapped it up and put it away in an old backgammon box where I found it. He also threw in about 200 rounds of ammo along with the 2nd mag, not to mention the backgammon box.
