Ewh Whee Dr. Drew. Clicked on link you listed and went down a rabbit hole with the back and forth exchange between you and Bob the Chemical Engineer. Not trying to bring up painful topic but that was crazy. My brain started to hurt with some of the baffling and techno jargon material presented and not certain if anything definitive presented itself. It almost sounded like you were in violent agreement that old guns can be safe to shoot with modern load pressures if you take reasonable care and not overload them, probably more for the furniture than barrels.

The only reason I delved into is that there is an LC Smith hammer gun I am looking at. Seems priced right and I think it has fluid steel barrels. They said it was a Model 235 but I don't know what that means in Elsie jargon and can't find a reference to it in LC Smith site.
