Armoloy is a hard chrome finish, and the entire gun would be finished with the hard chrome, including screws, pins, barrel, cylinder, etc., so the sideplate and entire frame would have the finish too.

As a side note, Armoloy is a very durable finish which resists rusting very well. I had a backup gun and an off duty gun done in Armoloy, and never worried about them rusting. I wish I still had them.
