Is the grip frame steel or alloy on the current production blue Blackhawks? What about the ejector rod housing?

Thanks,
Lou

More specifically, the Flattops share the steel XR3 grip frames of the New Vaquero/Montado. This includes the 50th Anniversary 357 Mag and 44 Mag; and the 44 Special Flattops which are built on 357 frames.
