You have a PM.
I have seen this bushing type a few times, but the execution was better,
The dovetail fit was better and they were scallopped to match the fences.
That is what leads me to think they are replacements or a repair.
The colours are American not London maybe the smith who refinished the colours,
over polished the bushing to blue then, they are high gloss, and rounded off all the edges, hence poor appearance, and amateur look.
If I get the gun, I will have fresh ones made, and consider getting them engraved to blend in, I prefer that look, it cannot detract from the current condition, I will keep these and they can be replaced at will.
Should the strikers have springs to keep them back in the pockets ?

Thanks
Graeme
