Nickel receivers were common among gallery rifles of the day, and although the only Remington 12b I've had was all blue I would not rule out the possibility of a nickel receiver.
Nickeling after manufacture would require dismounting the barrel, etc, so if the blue is original then the nickel probably is as well. It would certainly be easy to tell with the gun in hand.
