Here's a set of GH barrels also finished by Dale. I love the way the rib turned out.

Mike: Despite the rib marking, I believe your barrels are Damascus-Twist

How would one ever know his barrels were Damascus Twist when Parker Bros. only ever marked them Twist, Plain Twist, and Stub Twist?

More obvious pattern difference on these P grade barrels refinished by Brad
It would be clear if by chance an 'end-on' ribband is seen where tube segments were joined Tom Flanigan's refinished Parker Plain Twist with an 'end-on' ribband

Drew I was wondering if you saw the pic in the post before this of the ribband? Can you tell if the barrels are damascus twist?

Yes Mike, I believe it is. The edges of the Twist iron & steel alternees are 'mushroomed' by mechanical deformation/hammering.
