Thank you Drew ! You are the man !!!
I can't start to tell you how much I've enjoyed reading the various research pieces you've posted on pattern welded barrels. You are one of the main reasons most of the SxS's in my gatherings are wearing these beautiful hand crafted barrels. ![]() |

You are most welcome Paul. It's been great fun, and we all stand on the shoulders of Dr. Gaddy and others who brought a renewed appreciation of the incredible artistry of Damascus barrels.
Todd: do the barrel flats have a 'T' or a 'D'?

Drew, it has a "T". Let me know if you need any additional pictures. I appreciate your expertise.

Todd Allen: if you are asking about the barrels in this thread
http://parkerguns.org/forums/showthread.php?t=11695 the pattern is indistinct but appears to be Laminated Steel This is a late 1870s 16g Lifter labeled 'Twist' but is clearly laminated steel courtesy of Albert Zinn. ![]()

I wonder if there is a good photo of the barrel flat stamps on the barrels shown just above?
Late 1870's ('77, '78, '79, to be exact) could be Parker Bros. own produced Laminated Steel barrels. .

Sorry to stray from the fold, but it's one of the nicest patterns I've encountered.

Will, that pattern is amazing!
Toward the breech end the pattern looks similar to Bernard but forward of that it looks like it graduates to more of a Laminated pattern. .

The difference between the crolle number is the number of "swirls between the band welds. If you count 3 swirls plus a half swirl on each side between the welds it is 4-iron
