That is a real treasure!
And a cool story to go with it.
I much prefer blue guns - they just look like a gun should look. Yeah. stainless is more resistant to rain, sweat, etc. but when it gets all scratched up it looks like crap. Worn blue just gets more character to it.
Keep a well-oiled hog bristle shaving brush in an old metal Band-aid box handy and brush that 19 down when you take it off. 50 years from now it will still be just as good as it is now.
You lucky so-'n-so!
