Mauser bolt finish

[Le mulot]

Bonjour,
I’ve a question. At the end of war (1918), could the bolts of 98G or Kar98a have been blued?
I’ve seen on this site some pics of fully blued guns.
Thanks for your answer

Imperial bolts remained bare metal even after receivers were darkened. Here’s a great example of a late war Amberg with matching bolt: https://www.k98kforum.com/threads/blued-1918-amberg-gew-98-c-block.50843/
