It seems to be the norm that any damage to a weapon is immediately perceived to be "battle damage". This one would make a nice battle damage example, except it came from the government, and is an early example of how they de-mil'ed surplus weapons. It was bent until the slide stretched and broke. What a shame and waste.

By the way, the barrel is a Flannery Bolt.
