    He said they were Greek because of the color of the park, which is a black that is like that on the M16icon's barrel. Definitely not a paint. I'm pretty sure that I know what you are talking about with the enamel type color. It is like what is on the FN49's, what they call stove black, right? Cheers, Bruce.

    I would say he was mistaken, original finish HRA's can be a dark parkerizing. Thats the problem, everytime someone who sees a dark parkerizing its automatically Greek Black, not so.
    Again the Greek black is very easy to identify once you see it, more of a slightly shiney black enamel paint. Not a parkerizing at all. Chamber face will also be black
