I see no chrome/nickel finish. I do see the plum color on the receiver and toggles. We need much better photos then these for a better evaluation.

There's a "sticky" in the New Collectors' section that advises how to take the pics.

I didn't see the silver color, either--'cause it just doesn't show up in the pics. The plum color may also be an illusion at this point, although it is not uncommon on pistols Mauser made while dialing in the salt bluing process they switched to in 1937.

As an aside, ALL original rear toggle joints of Erma's KGP 69 pistols are plum.
