HOLY SMOKES...!!! (and I'm looking for parts)

I hate to enter anothers correspondence but in this case I must clarify an error in statement. annealing removes all heattreatment leaving the material in its softest and weakest state. and iusually used after welding snd some machining processes to allow the material to be relieved of unwanted internal stresses.

Drawing is the final step in controlling the Hardness and ductility of a material and usually follows heating and quenching the material to its hardest and most brittle state.

the higher the Drawing temprature the less brittle the material becomes. also the weaker the material becomes.

and if carried to the extreme the metal is annealed and soft

Misunderstanding these things have resulted in failure of firearm parts with pain suffering and even death.
