      Not to a stainless body...teflon maybe, not sure on the real coating. If it was a ule, then yes it would be anno.

        I thought they are Parkerized now. But not certain because some sources tell me you cannot parkerize SS and a few say certian ones with a certain process like parkerizing will work. One place I foud a proceedure for SS with Concentrated Sulfuric Acid. Which is a kind of Parkerizing but....Not ever bothered to confirm that but it looks like Parkerizing or one other coating that I found called KGI Gun coat. Something like those. They not done them in Teflon for some time now I think.

                  That was what they used when they first came out with the black coated bodies. It peeled off too much, so they switched to the current method.
