I have seen various grades of Parkers with different composition barrels. For example, my Parker has Bernard barrels. There are some with Acme steel or Titanic steel. For Parkers made before 1900's is there a better barrel composition? Do all pre 1900's mfg Parkers require load considerations? Is there any info on barrel composition and load limits? Is one barrel composition stronger then another?
