It seems like nobody really knows why these were shipped out unblued.
Some people think it’s because they were supposed to be engraved later:

But other people point out that the 1st Gen Walkers were shipped unblued, because Colt was in a hurry, and so maybe that’s why some of the 2nd Gen Walkers keep that tradition:

And I found this blog post, which doesn’t mention blueing, but which goes into extreme detail about how this gun was made:
