Mark II Sidelock Joined: Dec 2011 Posts: 911 Likes: 45	The 1902 Sears catalog reprint I have Has several "articles" about how those new fangled steel barrels are safe to shoot and won't blow up, And they are as good as a twist barrel. It's all a matter of economics. The manufacturers want to sell whatever they think they will make the most money. Good barrels are good barrels. The main deal with Damascus is it is so much more labor intensive, and the loss of almost 30% of the raw material during manufacture. Plus to properly finish the exterior of Damascus takes 2 to 3 times as long. The early fluid steel had the potential of inclusions inside the barrels with no indications it would fail. Good is good, abused is abused, and crap is crap. Caveat Emptor
