What have I got?

ricusa,
I agree with the other folks that your gun and holster appear to be in very nice condition. However, there is an odd machined indentation on the frame around the right side of the take down lever. It is not factory original and I am puzzled what it may be. Hopefully other members can comment on this.

Ron,

I will wager that those are the marks made by a tool which was used to try and pound out the takedown lever by someone unfamiliar with the takedown procedures.

It sadly somewhat hurts the value.
