I grew up with a Father, Grandfather and Uncles all convinced those Damascus and Twist warnings on shell boxes were just an industry ploy to sell new guns. My Father, October 1972, on a trip where we really got into the Pheasants in Colombia County, Washington. His gun is a Damascus barrel, 1896 vintage, Remington Model 1894 AE-Grade --

They're "dressed to kill"... pheasants!
That's a very nice piece of wood on that Parker. |

We were all raised to believe Damascus guns were not safe to shoot. We overcame our upbringing. Here's a 20 gauge I use on quail

Gulp, you mean I've been risking life and limb shooting those old things?
Someone please come and take this dangerous GH O frame 16 off my hands before I hurt myself.

A couple from last season with a 20 ga. DH and a 16 ga. lifter. Both great light upland guns.
