Hi Randy, Welcome to the forum. You have a 1906 Navy 1st issue with the safety in the original, unaltered, configuration. This is a rare and very desirable variation, and yours appears to be in extraordinary condition. However there are two areas of concern. Firstly, your gun appears to be missing the Naval proofs and acceptance marks on the left barrel, receiver and breechblock (see photo). Secondly, I see no sign of barrel serial number halos. I hope that this is just the photos you provided. Perhaps you could post clear photos of the left side of the gun, and a close up of the barrel serial. Regards, Norm
