As the area under the safety was originally milled out after the pistol was blued, it would be interesting to see how this was handled on this pistol.

The case is possibly original, but the lining is not. Most of these cases show heavy soiling due to the oil used on the pistol. These early commercial cases are getting as high as the pistols themselves. A few years back Bob Simpson had one of these fitted cases for a carbine, and the price was $10,000.
