Looks bead blasted and refinished to me.

This is not a 1916 Navy; maybe early post war gun made up from parts and stamped with horizontal C/N. The problem is your going to have a hard time proving it.

The frame doesnÃ¢??t appear to match the upper receiver, notice the over lap. No 1916 on left side of receiver and I donÃ¢??t think the barrel is of the right configuration, looks like a low profile sight but not sure from angle of photo.

ItÃ¢??s a pity the frame and receiver doesnÃ¢??t match, might make a good shooter.
