They are not the tiger striped cyanide colors that many find objectionable and not true to the originals. Late Rem Parkers were color case hardened by a cyanide process that left brighter colors than the charcoal process. I have seen enough cyanide colors to know that they do not have to be bright and striped and much of the coloration depends upon operator technique.

I believe that these are likely charcoal case colored and may have a lacquer spray over them. IMHO they are attractive. Others will have their own opinions.
