Brad, While photographing some guns this weekend I ran across a gun with Plain Steel barrels, it is a 4 digit ser number gun but these are not composite barrels they are steel barrels and they look blued or black . Are these early barrels made from rifle stock that was left over from the government contracts Parker had during the Civil War? I have not run across these barrels before! Looks like they would have to be blued rather than the damascus process, your thoughts please, Gary
