Well of course, we could always paint them hot pink and call them “scary pink rifles”.

Very nice!

Thanks Snake. This is a “working” gun, hence the MilSpec.

Springfield MilSpec. I have a Ronin, Garrison, and an SA-35. I’m very happy with all of them. This is my going outdoors gun. Just never had a parkerized.

Slather with mustard, then apply rub 👍

🤣

Will do sir. Thank you

I don’t plan on eating the thing. But I’ve seen stuff in the 1911 Forum which is unbelievable. That’s where I read about soaking and baking it lol. I appreciate the input. My branch of service didn’t use parkerized weapons, so the finish is new to me. Thank you for your help.

Just purchased a new MilSpec 1911, and was wondering about care of the Parkerized finish. I see everything online from baking it in the oven to soaking in ATF. I’d just like to know the best way to care for it. This is my “outdoors” gun, and I want to keep it protected from the elements.Thanks!
