Hi Stu.
Yes, I know what you're saying about damascus. This barrel may simply not be damascus. Sure could not find a trace of it when the barrel was off the stock.
I've also noticed on some of these guns where you have stock and barrel embellishment, but plain locks. And that seems to be the case here.
