Gerben,
Could it be possible that someone has reblued the sideplate with instant blue?
The changing from blue to brown is a common failure when the instant blue is improperly applied, especially over a long time period.

Gerben,
The excellent book by Angier, "Firearm Blueing and Browning" covers the subject in fair detail.
They are occasionally available on "eBay" at a very reasonable price.
I highly recommend it as a referrence work.
