Drew, what's the story about the faked up Bernard marking on the rib you pictured in the last post? What kind of steel was used in that set of barrels?

Bill - I think those Twist barrels upon which some doofus engraved 'Bernard' were discussed here a couple of years ago.



Wonder if this happened Monday morning after a St. Pat's Sunday?

In the sixties, we used to see all sorts of remarked and partially reribbed Parker barrels to disquise sleeved and blued Damascus Parkers. Some of these mismarked guns would have value except for the markings. One example of a remarked sleeved gun that has not only value but character is my Lefever sleeved DH which was professionally remarked by Lefever, "Parker Brothers Meriden, Conn. Lefever Steel". The marking looks more like a Parker rib marking than the original. I have not seen another like it.

No, he went to the same spelling school I attended. You see a man does not need an education to be great. Education is why our country is the way it is. Oh, I'm not great.
