I don't believe we have any evidence, printed or written by Parker Bros. in any of their catalogs or publications, that states all barrels were finished black and white. There are however countless entries in the stock books calling for barrels to be "rebrowned" and while we know this was the term used at the time to indicate "refinish" I suspect some barrels may have been finished in other than "black and white". I had a hammer gun with Laminated Steel barrels in 99+% original condition and the barrels are more "plum" in color.
