1906 American Eagle 9mm - Page 2

This is a 1906 American Eagle, 9mm that I got today. I was looking at some things on ebay and saw this in the background. I asked him about it and he said it was for sale. I paid what I thought was a bit high, but I didn't have one of these. I was afraid it was rebuled, but after getting it today I can see it is all original. The grips are poor in the rear by the grip safety, but I think period?

I realize it is not pristine, but I will keep it.

The firing pin is unmarked and unfluted.

The numbers are all matching, and the barrel is slightly pitted, but has plenty of rifling.

Opinions?

Sorry for the bad pictures...
