Further, please read Ed Muderlak's Shooting Flying and the American Experience on page 173, at the bottom, there is a picture of Ira Paine's 16 bore with Parker-made Laminated Steel barrels. There is more discussion of Parker-made barrels in his chapter "American-Made Damascus Barrels" beginning on page 171 of this book.
