From some things I've read and from what Brad tells me, Laminated Steel barrels are likely the strongest or at least most resilient barrels on these old Parkers.
That said, Sherman Bell conducted his "Finding Out For Myself" tests on guns that were truly in the "Clunker" category and the Damascus barrels on a 2-frame Parker went to just over 30,000 p.s.i. before they succumbed to destruction.
