Saw the pics. I don't have a BSS here for comparison, but it looks legit to me. Per Browning website, date code is 1977 but type code does not make any sense.

Just looked at it now, engraving looks much shallower than on an original blued frame. I'm also thinking after-market case coloring with the original finish polished away and some loss of engraving depth.

Or maybe just plain faded, Adam. Like a Parker Repro. They have a reputation of fading faster than the Chicago Cubs!
