Is 45LC finish worn, or is that factory patina type finish?

That is a factory case hardened finish from the factory

Ruger calls this finish "Case Colored", it simulates case hardened but not very well. They no longer offer it because they had too many problems with it. If you email Ruger's customer service they will offer to refinish it at no charge. I bought a similar Vaquero from a member here a couple of years ago and Ruger refinished it in blue at no cost to me. If I remember correctly they even sent a prepaid mailing label to ship it back to them. The gun came back looking brand new.

Yes.  Factory case colored. Rugers' case coloring was not the greatest imho. It looks better in person. But not a safe queen.
