Question on a Late Production Remington Rand

[epidoc]

I was looking at a Remington Rand M1911A1 at a local gun shop today. The serial number is in the 2063000 range. Overall finish would rate about 99% with just a tiny bit of wear on the muzzle. The barrel was made by High Standard, and also has parkerized finish. Did the late production RRs used barrels that had been parkerized or is this a replacement barrel?

That would be a replacement barrel.

All WWII M1911A1 barrel production was blued.
