1936 S/42 Reblued ?

Wayne,

After looking more closely, I notice that the sideplate trigger transfer bar is blued, as is the mainspring hook hanging down from the receiver. I just checked my all original early rust-blued 1937 S/42, and it does not have these parts blued - they are in the white. It is my understanding that all rust-blued Lugers had these two parts in the white from the factory, so I would have to say something happened here.
