Need help with scoring on BBL in Virginia
 

I was cleaning my gun the other night and noticed what looked like scoring on the left barrel of my gun. Is there anyone in the Alexandria, VA area that can help me determine what is scoring versus fracture on my barrel?

I've out 250 rounds through this gun with no problems and they ring like church bells. I just worry about what see because these lines double back on each other and are not linear. Help!

They certainly don't look like fracture or stress lines to me and I magnified them to their max. The barrels appear to have been reblued a long time ago and those lines may have been there before the blueing job.

Dean, thank you. That is what I was hoping would be the case. Im glad you were able to recognize that it had been reblued at some point. I wasn't sure myself. I guess I just need to go get a backup Parker just in case. :)

I would take it to an engine shop and have it Magnafluxed . That would rule out a crack. You only get one left thumb !
