If the barrels were reblued with the proper bluing and polishing technique what difference would it make if they had been redone?

Most early guns had barrels of composite steel , either the various forms of twist , laminated or Damascus , which were generally not factory blued anyway. Many early composite barrels have been worn or oxidized to such extent that the pattern is obscured and refinishing may be advantageous .

Most questions about Parkers are answered in The Parker Story. TPS provides an explanation about when the weep holes in barrels appeared.
