Huh. Definitely isn't as dark in color as later manufactured versions.

What part of the scene are you referring to?

The metal and wood grip of the firearm.

Yea, they went to black plastic grips as a cost saving method around 1941. The receiver on this gun is a little plum which is common for the time as Mauser hadn`t got the salt blue 100 percent down yet. There is also a good amount of wear on the front and back strap so the color is a lightly lighter there.
