When did Parker introduce Vulcan steel?

[Phil C]

Aaron, does your gun start with S/N 822xx if so there was a dozen of early guns that were made with Vulcan Barrels. I own S/N 82226 and it letters with Vulcan barrels.

[George Lander]

It is a generally accepted fact that all Parker fluid steel barrels were made of the same steel, the exception being those of Sir Joseph Whitworth. Parker used the various terms show above (Trojan, Vulcan, Acme, Peerless, etc.) more to determine grade and the degree of embelishment.

Best Regards, George

The S/N is 81356.
