Coated or phosphate Sig P220 Combat?

[scoob_i_e]

I'm a little confused. I am reading a description of this pistol off of impactguns website. Their (impactguns) description reads;

....Internal parts and controls are coated or phosphated.....

So I'm not sure which of the two it is; coated or phosphated? Or both? (Maybe some parts are phosphate others have a different finish?)

Then again, on sig's official site, there is no mention of coated OR phosphate? They simply state the internal parts and controls are phosphated.

Does anyone know what the 220 combat's internals/controls are coated in?

My internals look chrome plated and the mags that came with it were phosphate coated. The phosphate is very rough. Wouldn't be good for moving parts. You'll want to examine or have the dealer check. Not all combats were created equally....

Really? That's a little unnerving. I wonder if 220 Combat's that have been made more recently are of higher quality?

Just called Sig, I asked 2-3 times if the internals were phosphated and not some other type of finish. He was getting a little impatient for repeatedly asking but he said yes everytime, they are in fact phosphate.

Also said that the mags are stainless.
