It would appear the hammer and trigger are case colored. just flash bounce back. Here's a late one to tear apart. Big Larry

Not to burst any bubbles, but you can buy a pair of factory brand new factory unfinished 1910s gold medallion stocks for $60 a pair. They are available on gunpartscorp.com

Here is what they look like when received, and what they look like when an oil finish is applied.View attachment 755702

Did they have the screws & escutcheons?
 
"Also, the stocks are not original. The stocks prior to 1910 are either concave round top walnut without medallions or black hard rubber"

FYI, Got my letter from S&W and I thought it might be of interest here. Apparently some guns did come with these grips.
