New byf 42

Gentlemen,

I picked up this byf 42 yesterday. It was supposedly "liberated" by a Norwegian resistance fighter in May 1945. It has a dent in the trigger guard and Bubba has been prying on the frame just below the safety lever. The ejector leaf spring also has a little bulge which doesn't seem to affect its function. It came without holster and magazine so I found an fxo Eagle 37 which I believe would be correct.

What makes me a little wary is the fact that the sideplate looks refinished while the rest of the gun appears original.

Comments anyone?
