Material: Carbon Steel

Question :If after polishing everythng to a nice mirror finish, should I have said parts re-blued, what about Parkerized??

Said Parts: Trigger, Sear Lever, Sear, Extractor, Ejector, Hammer.


Wondering: If said polished parts are now more suseptable to the elements? AND if Re-blueing or Parking will take away (how much of) that nice smoothing feeling parts have now?



Thanks.

I'd leave them alone.

I hate to feel what a parked trigger sear combo feels like.

If anything hit em w/ cold blue

If you want to parkerize, you need to have a rough surface in order for the park to really get into the metal. If it's smooth, it'll be really thin and scratch off easily...
