i'm also doing a barrel change and i am going to diassemble bead blast and parkerize after barrel change and it should look more like the origanal

Are you putting a WWII length barrel on it? If you havent filed Class II papers on it then you are likely breaking the law by creating a short barrelled rifle....

Bob...
WW2 vintage M1 & M1A1 Thompson submachineguns came from the two manufacturers (Savage & Auto Ordnance) finished in "Dulite" matt black finish. Thompson guns only were "parkerized" when passing through a rebuilding facility or arsenal. See Frank Iannamico's AMERICAN THUNDER The Military Thompson Submachine Guns.....A must have for any Tommygun buff ! Hope this helps.
