What finish would you use to match the factory finish on a SA 93? I replaced the front site and gas block on one with the military versions and need to paint those parts and barrel area.

I used Alumahyde II matte black,  Matched pretty well.   I painted everything from the lower handguard retainer to the muzzle so it would all look the same.

Strip it down and shoot it with a coat of gunkote matte black.
The original finish on my SA93 never impressed me. In fact
it started coming off when a bit of brake cleaner hit the paint.

Gunkote is much more durable and looks better anyway.
