Could be, Larry. But, I'll hold off judgement until I see it-have only handled the later, blued guns. The Uggies of the era were advertised as having "Black Chrome" barrels, when, in fact, they were fully brazed and hot blued. Nothing wrong with that, but, it is inaccurate.
I actually own a gun with true black chrome applied, and know of another-a Remington 241 my Father had done in the early 1960s. It is off-the-hook shiney. Ditto a Remington 700 with one of the early stainless barrels.
Too shiney, both examples.
Best,
Ted
