Opinions please!

What do you think, blued or parked? Ordered this Winchester bolt from Numrich and it was advertised as blued. I got it today and it looks parked to me. So, I called Numrich and they double checked the part number and confirmed it the part number for a blued bolt. They also called the warehouse to confirm no parked bolts were mixed in with blued bolts. Am I mistaken,could it be blued?

it has been refinished with a phosphate coating, aka Parkerized.

That's what I thought, thanks Brian. This is the third time that Numrich has screwed me. Now I have to pay to return it.

You should not have to pay for their mistake. However, that is why I steer clear of them!

It's not so much a mistake, as false advertising. They are claiming this is a blued part!
