Hello,

Is anyone familiar with Sandvik steel barrels? Would Sandvik steel barrels be considered good barrels for a SxS shotgun? The shotgun in question would have been made in the 1920's.

Thanks in advance!

I have few of my grandfathers hand saws that were marked Sandvik.

My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.

One of many reasons the Nazis courted the Swedes in the WW2 era- Sweden has rich ore deposits crucial to making alloyed and stainless steels- and additionally, why Latrobe PA was in the top five list of targets the Nazis had then in WW2 for either long range bombers or rocket launchers from subs--

I have a set of cabinet makers steel chisels with Sandvik Steel- you couldn't write a big enough check to buy them from me either-- Sandvik and Bofors, Ya- real gut dere!!!
