I'm working on an old MKII made in 1986 it is blue 5.5" slab side barrel. It belongs to a guy I work with.
The pistol has the old VQ wide trigger in it and the sear is Gold in color.
Did VQ ever make gold colored sears?

I have no idea if they did but is it Ti coated?
I do know if you heat the steel to a certain temp (heat treating and tempering) it will give you that gold color. But I would expect it to wear off on the engagement area.
