Robert, Rockin WR is correct. All parts should be blue. The Germans discontinued the straw process about half way through the 1937 production process (well closer to the 1/3 point, but who is counting that close) for Army pistols (Military Mausers).

While Aaron Davis produced a compact book, it has many errors (this is one) and the prices are well out dated. Try to get a better book!!!
