Maybe these pictures of the finish are better...

The finish is deep blue/black. It looks uniform except on the handles, where it is a bit worn and shows some minor pitting. VERY minor.

I got a comment that "something on the right slide appears to be a replacement part." Any idea what this is in reference to? I could not get an elaboration.

There are absolutely no other markings anywhere on the magazines. Is the one with the shiny heel what is known as a "forced match?" (See top of thread)

There are also no markings on the grips. But there IS this tantalizing little series of scratches (pictured twice, in different light; difficult to capture in a photo):

I appreciate all comments and details about the pistol and its holster. The gent who is selling it wants $2500. From what I've researched here, that seems a little off...
