None of the metal finishes on the gun are original. They all appear to have been media/vapor blasted and then the barrels and forend metal blued. Likely Hot blued by the look of the barrel lug. And the frame left raw. Much like the finishes used by large manufacturers on economy guns.
Looks like whoever did it knew how to finish and 870, but not a parker.
