Too Immanuel Meffert seemed to be a big fan of Rheinmetall vessels as many of their offerings are fitted w/ Ehrhardt Lauf. Maybe there was a link there directly or thru Rmerwerk / Rmer & Compagnie / Rhmer und Compagnie: http://www.germanhuntingguns.com/archives/romerwerk-the-becker-revolving-shotgun/I can't say there was a link but I am mining heavily in that direction.

Too Meffert had some novel tube advancement referred to as >>Radialstahllufe<< and for the moment I am not sure if that meant feature of tube making?

Thanks Raimey. Lots of interesting information. The tube set on my gun still ring nice and clear. Fairly light as well.

Possibly rotary or spin casting. I have done it with bronze but not steel. Should possible Too Meffert had some novel tube advancement referred to as >>Radialstahllufe<< and for the moment I am not sure if that meant feature of tube making?

Neat looking gun. Looks a lot like my 1934 Sauer.

Good to hear Brian. Hope it works well for you in the fall. Trying to arrange to spend a few days at Delta this year. Well see.

Thanks to Wolfgang's efforts, we now know Ehrhardt concern rolled out 7k-8k barrels a month. Ehrhardt's process was in fact that of one making tubes by a radial process or Radialstahllufe".

So when the term Radialstahllufe", the process by which Ehrhardt made tubes, 7k to 8k per month, is associated with Meffert, it actually points indirectly to Ehrhardt. I have seen more Ehrhardt tubes on Meffert offerings that any other.

And yet again Wolfgang comes up w/ another fantastic find:
Alleinige Verwertung Der Gewehrlauf-Marke R.O.M.(Where the O is the Ehrhardt Trademark) Radial-Stahl-Rohr-Extra Qual (Patent Ehrhardt)
Verbiage from a Postkard from 1913.
Which notes that Meffert is the Sole outlet for Ehrhardt patented steel tubes.
