do modern springers have `polished` cylinders?

back in my day (20 years ago) one of the mod`s we carried out on our springers was to mirror polish the cylinder, are modern cylinder tubes polished from the factory? I ask `coz it made one hell of a difference to our guns cocking action (muuuch smoother) & along with `feathering` the piston washer edge, made a great difference to the power output (but shortened the washers useable life considerably!), and, well, I`ve never seen it mentioned on here before, just thought I`d ask?
