Sieger, toward the end of production some Mauser Lugers were given a phosphate (parkerized) finish and some of the byf 42 Lugers sold to Portugal were so finished. While the Portugese byf 42 Lugers are the only ones I've heard of being parkerized, it's also possible that some parkerized Lugers were issued to the German Army. Perhaps someone else has more positive information about that.
