FM M95 Detective Hi Power

I guess I'll have to be on the lookout for an M95 Detective to add to my gunsafe. What type of finish do they come in? It does not appear to be a salt or rust blue.

The finish is some sort of spray on method as far as I know, not a bluing finish. You will find everything from quite nice and acceptable, to "that must be a Monday morning finish"!!! I have seen both. I was lucky, and my Mod. 90 finish a quite nice. I have never seen any with a different type of finish, so if different, perhaps it is non-original. I know a few folks that have had their Detectives refinished due to bad original finishes....or wear.
