Yes, paint will change the thickness of the latch making it malfuntion.. when you parkerize metal it dries the metal out and even though I re oil them a couple times they still dry out from time to time like all ar-15 parts that are parked.. by oiling them like you should do all moving parts on a rifle you add back that darkend look after time they will stay blacker longer and longer and get darker and daarker..
Although some very light application of dura coat might work and stay in place over time
