Parkerizing is becoming more and more hard to find, from my experience. I also like the look of a parkerized gun, and consider it a superior finish to blueing in field guns. I think it has something to do with the chemicals involved and EPA regs. I figure we'll see more and more stainless and less blued/parkerized/hard-chromed as time goes on due to ever-increasing EPA strangle-, er, controls.
