George,

Thanks for the continuing education on Damascus Barrels. I did kind of feel funny calling that detailed finish Blueing.....Browning sounds so much more fitting! The more i hear from Members...the more comfortable I feel around my gun.

Thanks again!

Michael, The phrase"browning" may be a bit miss leading. English guns with composite barrels have a distinctive brown hue to them. Parker Bros. barrels are finished with a black and white contrasting finish. Quite beautiful to my eye.
