I have a question about rifle finishes from each Commonwealth Nation for their various SLRs. What did each of the Canadian, English, Australian
, New Zealand and Indian SLRs designate for rifle finish? My simple observation is that all except the UK
just applied parkerizing. The UK appears to me to be a paint over parkerizing and I believe I have heard that term before. Is this correct?
What form of paint (color and curing) did the UK use?
Did the other countries actually specify a "color" to the final parkerizing process?Sorry, "colour" to my Commonwealth collector friends.
Did these finishes also exactly apply to the magazines?
Surprised I did not find this as a thread already.
Thanks guys!Information
