Yes it is George. There were/are various patterns of Laminated Steel depending on the era of manufacture because of the various manufacturers or sources Parker Bros. bought them from.
Interesting also is the fact that it is lister as a PT in the Ser book. |

Very pretty pattern for what people normally think of as dull Laminated steel.

I am curious how many other ph guns have laminated instead of twist?
It probably is one of the latest laminated ph's. |

Where that one is listed as a PT and not a L1 (which it in fact is) we may never know the exact number of Grade 1 hammerless Parkers made with Laminated Steel barrels. Twist Steel barrels are what was used for composit barrels. The Parker Steel fluid steel barrels was, to the best of my knowledge, the only other barrel steel used on the Grade 1 hammerless guns. I haven't looked but The Parker Story may list some with Laminated Steel barrels. What does the top rib legend say about the barrel steel on this one?

The legend has the word laminated written on it. This was an ebay gun sold in seperate pieces. When I looked up the number in serialization book and it was listed as twist, I was not sure the pieces were number matching. But they are. Now the only thing not original to the gun will be the stock if we can find one to fit. The stock heads are shaped differently, early verses later production.

David and Dean, the "authors" put a note in the Grade 1 section about Laminated Steel barrels listed in the stock books as PT grade. In the Grade 1 20 gauge Twist section, they noted that 20 twenty gauge Laminated Steel guns were listed as PT but noted in the stock books as having Laminated Steel barrels. I found this note after adding one of these Laminated Steel guns to my collection a few years ago. My gun is an all original very early 20 gauge in the 70s, a sweet gun with pits in the bores. The rib legend is "Laminated Steel".
