Based on what I have observed, all serial numbers through 700,000 should have a case color hardened lever, hammer, butt plate, etc. When exactly Winchester switched to bluing all of the parts is not known, but it could be in the mid to upper 800,000 serial range.

I have a short chart showing this exact subject but I can’t seem to get it to load onto photobucket with this new computer. I could email it to you and you can decide if you want to post it here on WACA if you like.
