I have in my possession a 1-frame 12 ga. PH with Laminated Steel barrels (this gun would normally have been manufactured with Twist Steel barrels) and the barrel flat under the right barrel is appropriately stamped with the T with crescents above and below. The rib is roll stamped Damascus Steel... but, once again, the barrel tubes are definitely Laminated Steel.
Incidentally, the PGCA records support this anomaly.
