Blue parts on an 03-A3
Should a later production (Jan 1944) 03-A3 have more parkerized parts than just the safety lever. The reason I ask is that in Canfield's Book he says that as production progressed more and more parts were parkerized. Would a Jan 1944 production A3 with all blued parts but the safety lever be suspect?
Thanks,
Jarrod

once again...
only the receiver, barrel, front sight base, and safety lever were phosphate, the rest is black oxide{blue} on Remingtons.
seems the SC A3,s toward the end of production had triggerguards, and bayonet lugs parkerized.

I knew that the barrel, sightbase, and receiver were not "blued".
What I did not know was that it was only SC who stopped bluing some parts at the end of production.
