As I recall, one of our members has a grade 2, 20ga gun with Laminated barrels. I can not recall if it was a lifter or top lever.
Only because my TPS was at arms length away, I looked, and saw there were a few Grade 1 and 2 8ga guns with Laminated barrels.

Were the serial numbers of those guns in the range (later 1877, 1878, and early ‘79) where they might have been Parker-made barrels?
My 16 gauge D-grade is an 1881 so they may have had a few sets of Parker-made Laminated Steel barrels still in inventory.
