Brian, the false sideplates are decorative and give the engraver a larger area to display his talents.
It is a beautiful gun and I wouldn't kick it out of bed but it gripes me when these sellers call these types of guns original in their descriptions. The gun is only original if the seller defines original as meaning original post upgrade and so states in his description. Notice the seller states "original casecolors", baloney!
This seller is being dishonest in his description, IMHO.
