If Parker had replaced Damascus barrels with fluid steel one I'd think they would number the barrels to match the frame.

Yup Rich - I overlooked that very significant indicator in my earlier post. Parker Bros. would absolutely have numbered replacement barrels to the gun's full serial number located on the frame's water table.
