Anyone know the serial number range for the parkerized/phosphate finishes on the CZ 27's?

Take a look here:

http://www.tague.at/pistolen/en_index.htm?/pistolen/pages/en_cz27.htm

Here is some additional information:
CZ 27 Serial Number Series

(Numbers are Approximate)

Up to 1938 ? serial # 0 ? 15,000 These are preGerman occupation
1939, 40 & early 41 serial # 15,001-20,500 is considered start of all production going to the German military
1941 ? 42,000 CZ 27?s produced
1942 ? 100,000 produced
1943 ? 200,000 produced
1944?77,000 produced
1943 ? 23,000 produced, This is up to the point when the allies liberated the factory
 
Serial # 473,000 is the last pistol produced under occupation.

The above was taken from a post on the Surplusrifleforum.com

Thanks for the reply.
I've seen that link and it has a nice section on cz27's. I was looking at a cz for sale on the internet and it looked like it compared to the one with the phosphate finish on that link but it's serial number was only 326,000 and that didn't seem late enough. It seems in pics the rough military blue looks similar to the phosphate when it's in good condition.
