What is value of Sam Holt Arms 10 GA double barrel with outside hammers Has dog on side Belgian laminated steel barrels Breech loaded also have original ammo for it?
It would be most foolish to fire this gun. Laminated barrels are also called Damascan barrels and have been known to corrode and weaken where you can't see the damage. This was aggravated by the black powder shells in use at the time the gun was new. Modern smokeless powder has much higher pressures. The barrels can blow up. You are best to hang this gun on the wall and never use it again.

If your shotgun has Damascus barrels,then by all means do not fire modern smokeless ammo through your shotgun.I would have your shotgun looked at by a qualified gunsmith before attempting to fire any ammo through a shotgun of this age.

Made around 1886 according to the makers marks on the barrels (do not shoot modern 12 ga ammo in this) black-powder shot shells should be used. after you have a gunsmith check it out. Mine is worth all i can get....from $200 to $500 if the buyer is in love with it.

What is the history of T Barker shotguns?
Not really much history. It was a brand name used by Sears Roebuck in the early 1900's. They were manufactured by Crescent Arms and possibly a few other US makers, but most were inexpensive Belgian imports. More information contributed by others: * I found from the Illinois State Museum section "Harvesting the River," that the T. Barker was sold in 1897 by Sears for $11.97. They're example was seized during the Taylor Mine Wars. My question is: Are the laminated barrels safe to shoot modern ammo? * If it has laminated barrels, it was probably proofed for black powder. There are people who shoot these old shotguns, but they load their own shells to 1900 specifications. Using a box of WalMart shells would be like driving your Model T down the Interstate at 75.

Can you shoot tmj ammo from a Glock 27?
Due to the polygonal rifling in Glock barrels they recommend FMJ bullets. FMJ generally does not cover the bottom side of the bullet. TMJ covers fully. You can shoot either FMJ or TMJ through a Glock.
