Not necessarily so John. Many, many of us shoot our Damascus and Twist and Laminated and Bernard barreled Parkers on a regular basis with the appropriate loads. But our barrels are sound and without compromise so we are quite comfortable shooting them. It is great fun to shoot these old Parkers and give them a little exercise as often as we can.
