Sears sold T. Barker & Thomas Barker hammer guns
1899 with Laminated Steel (Twist)  Interesting 1902 Sears catalog listing is for T. Barker but and the illustration clearly says T. Parker 'Royal Damascus Finish, from Wilson's celebrated steel' would be Faux Damascus  The country of origin requirement started in 1891. Note the different font.  Not very long ago the gun would have been offered at a Gun Show for $150 and sold for $100 by Sunday morning

We have to remember that Ed Muderlak sold his near mint Trojan 12 for a bunch, and it soon resold for almost ten grand. I agree with Dean's price assessment.

That was a nice gun! The price it sold at was a great one! A collector would easily pay $1k more.

Rick: Belgian "Cast Steel" could have been several products. I did a composition analysis on one specimen and it was very low carbon non-standard AISI 1002 with a tensile strength less than Bessemer/Decarbonized steel.
