I agree with Brian completely.

The mere fact that the barrels are Damascus doesn't make them bad or junk. They need to be measured CORRECTLY before they are relegated to the scrap pile. Lots of us shoot Damascus barrels quite safely and they're a lot prettier than blued steel.

He checked them, I’m going to put sleeves in them. Got ahold of Briley today and they are making what I’m going to need that way I can keep the Damascus barrels. He was going to use Kirk merington sleeves, but the guy has retired. He said they aren’t safe to shoot out of but sleeves will work that way I can keep the original barrels the gun was mad in 1883
