What sort of parkerize is this?

[Madmox]

So what do you all think? Is this zinc or manganese phosphate parkerizing? I have a chromoly frame that I want to parkerize to match. Or is it the original du lite finish?

Looks like zinc.

The softening of the rollmark suggests it has been blasted and refinished, so it probably isn't the original DuLite finish.

Zinc phosphate Parkerizing would give the closest color match.

I wasn't positive about the du lite because it still has that trademark US&S discoloration on the front half the slide. Thanks!

Thats what I was leaning towards, just thought I would consult the experts first!
