The grips on your gun are from much later, after 1961. It looks to have good honest wear from lovable use. It appears to have been dry fires quite a bit. you may want to make sure the "peening" into the case head recess does not affect the shooting. These are nice guns as both shooters, and everyone needs one in their collection.
I forgot to mention I put these grips on after I got it. I received it with some massive aluminum grips on it. These grips came off of a Victory revolver I inherited. Thank you so much for the information!
