Thomas I'm no expert but, that looks highly suspect. It might have read LAMINATED STEEL.

The D is for Damascus. I see the rosettes of damascus in the barrel flats so the barrels are Damascus and blued or are fluid steel sleeved to a Damascus "mono-bloc".

Gosh.. Barely percepticle change. Looks almost factory to the untrained eye.
Did they use a table fork for the engraving?

It is a sweet little gun that someone went to the trouble of changing and I wish they had left it alone. It is a 0 frame with 26 inch barrels and single trigger. I would have preferred damascus but it is what it is. I removed the trigger guard and all the no match so that is good. Thomas

if someone put the money into having it sleeved, leaving it alone may not have been a option.
the uneven stamping does detract from the repair though
