Many years ago when visiting Chadicks Ltd I saw a set of Damascus barrels that
had belonged to a AAH grade gun. They had the barrel engraved wedges. The gun at one time had been returned to the factory for fluid steel barrels to be added. Herschel said the gun had both sets of barrels when he purchased it. The
gun was sold with the steel barrels only as according to Herschel the buyer did
not want the Damascus barrels as he believed them to be unsafe!! I have always
regretted not trying to buy those barrels. They were beautiful. This incident occurred in the 1980's well before we started researching and writing The Parker Story.
