I am documenting a print and want to properly call out the finish. Does anyone have the Mil-Spec number?

Thanks guys,

  I guess I wasn't clear. There is a Mil-Spec number for the parkerizing process - regardless of the part being finished. That's what I'm after.

  Each rifle or part had its own specs for a finish.
  That is why you see so many shades and colors of parkerizing.

  See if you can go through the Library of Congress to acquire a copy of the manual below. It may contain the MIL-STD number references. Good Luck! Joe
