Does anyone know if the Win 61 had a nickeled trigger? I'm disassembling one and it looks like the top of the trigger has traces of nickel plate, the rest is bare. Thanks in advance.

No, it should not have had a Nickle trigger.
The complete trigger, including the sear hook, should be blued.

Some of the other internal parts (carrier, disconnecter) have a somewhat silver appearance, but I don't think I would call it nickel.
The hammer should be color case hardened.
