Was wondering what the experts in the topic have to say, any help would be appreciated Thanks CJ The taste of poor quality lingers long after the cheap price is forgotten.........

Please post a pic or link to an image. Last edited by Drew Hause; 07/27/13 07:10 PM. https://sites.google.com/a/damascusknowledge.com/www/home

I'm trying to find the Bernard reference but I'm not able to, can't remember where I saw it...I'll have to look again.

Interestingly, they demonstrate a clear transition between the thicker breech segment and the mid-barrel segment This is your refinish also, and probably is 'Silver' laminated steel, but possibly an earlier variant Last edited by Drew Hause; 07/29/13 11:09 AM. https://sites.google.com/a/damascusknowledge.com/www/home
