Mr. Forge:
Allow me to let you in on a little (very little) secret: The legal adversity to Damascus barrel guns in the US is exclusively due to early 20th century advertising bull pucky. You probably know this by instinct.
But -- as a professional advertising BS artist for almost 30 years -- I can tell you that the aversion to Damascus barrel guns was a scam to instill fear in older technology so the gun companies could sell more. and cheaper, fluid steel barrels.
Once this glorious BS was accepted as fact (like global warming) it was codified by junk science and became a foundation for legal precedent.
Nobody much cared about the UK's position and experience with the same metal compound.
Thus, you are unlikely to get any clear answer from any corporation about "safe" Damascus loads. They are too fearful of liability based on junk science -- and advertising BS.
Best, Kensal
