You are right, as far as I know it was possible to order these pistols with either "black" small items or gold plated one.
At a certain point it seems that Mauser stops using Chrome finish and starts using the Nichel finish. I am not really expert in this matter, there is a particular advantage in the Nichel finish or it is only an esthetic issue.

Thank you John for the appreciation.

The advantage of nickle over chrome is the look. To me it's a classy finish. It has a much warmer look to it than chrome.
