I can't seem to get good photos of what the inside of this pistol is supposed to look like. Everything I can find has nice, pretty photos of the exterior of the pistol-very little shows individual or semi-hidden parts and I can't get a good fix on how this thing is really supposed to look. I know I can't make it perfect, but I want it respectable, so I want it reasonably close to original-looking. I have questions:

I can see from several photos what parts are supposed to be strawed. Not a problem.

Is the entire frame (inside the barrel channel and out) supposed to be blued? Or am I looking at bluing the outside and leaving the inside in the white?

Recoil spring linkage-blue or in-white?

Toggle Section-all blue, including recoil link? All blue inside and out?

Upper frame-blue on inside, or in-white?

Thanks!

Justin
