I'm surprised the Damascus barrels still exist. With Remington's policy on Damascus barrels by November 1941, I'd have thought they would have required their destruction before they fitted new barrels. Must have been somebody who knew somebody.

I'd expect that if the gun was back to Parker Bros. in 1919 it would have been retrofitted with the 1910 bolt and bolt plate.

An early Quality BH with beautiful fine scroll engraving and a set of "modern" steel barrels should be worthy of some serious restoration investment.
