Im only 26 and have yet only owned 2 damascus barreled guns so my experince with them is limited . Though it seems most people(not the people who frequent here of course) have this idea that the different metals in damascus barrels was just wrapped around each other or layered like lasagna noodles . When in fact arent damascus barrels forged welded when they were made ? That is what is see blacksmiths mention today when they are forging damascus knives about how the layers become forged welded or hammered welded together .
I had this debate on another forum were a fellow wanted to buy a 10 ga sxs muzzleloader . But everyone was telling him damascus guns are essentially pulling a grenade pin next to your face .
