Um, what is the tube steel type on the longarm(s)?? Meffert was extremely loyal to Ehrhardt Stahl, which was more of a vessel type process vs bar stock converted into blanks or rough bored tubes. Now the Belgians took bar stock & converted it to a rough bored tube and then the Germans, Schilling Forge in this case, completed the process converting a rough bored tube into a barrel. And there was nothing short about the Schilling Forge for sure. If memory serves me correct, many of H.A. Lindner's offerings wore fluid steel tubes converted by the Schilling Forge.
