Brad: I have admired images of barrels you have redone as well as some of the others often named here. The damascus patterns are beautiful. I wonder how they looked fresh from Meriden a century ago. Would the pattern have been as vibrant as we see can be accomplished or would it have been more subdued? Anybody out there with an original untouched barrel that has the prominent pattern? I have become a damascus fan after getting past the fear of sudden death to the shooter of same. They add a further dimension to the beauty of the early gun makers artistry.
Cheers,
Jack
