model 51 "fire blue"
Can anyone tell me what small parts on the Model 51 were "Fire Blued" and what years or serial number range had the fire bluing?
Dear vdegrazia,
I have two PA serial #'s as mentioned in the thread below. I believe they wer both made in 1923 and they are pristine with no holster wear or grip wear. The fire blue parts are:
Slide retaining pin both sides.
The safety lever and pin.
The mag release retaining pin. The mag release on one is straw and nuetral on the other.
The mainspring strut is fire blue on both.
The backstrap retaining pin on one is brighter than the same pin on the other.
Thats all I know.
I have this set of pistols potentially for sale if you are interested.
They are 99% guns.
Pictures will be available as soon as I can get some closeup lenses.
