My compliments also for lots of neat articles; esp. Bro. Tom's "Lost Then Found" on p. 39.

For the 1 or 2 interested and with the near vision to tell the difference wink the barrels on John Campbell's Phantom on p. 51 are Laminated Steel, not Damascus; and likely are "Best English 3 Iron Laminated Steel" which was indeed the winner of the 1st phase of the Birmingham Proof House trial

The barrels on Terry Deem's Remington Model of 1873 on p. 124 are Bernard I, not Laminated Steel. Similar barrels on a 1875



I've sent messages to John on the PGCA site and Terry through DGJ.
