I have ran across a few steyr doubles lately, super nice guns both hammer and hammerless. Sellers often claim barrels are made of a solid piece of steel? Anyone have any information on these? Old threads? Or advice. Here is a pic of one but have saw 4 or 5 in last year or so.

An Austrian platform for sure. I do wonder if they sourced from Ferlach? Steyr was a satellite stamping station as an arm of the Praha proof facility.

All barrels were made from a single piece of steel, bar stock. Well, except the vessel process that the Whitworth tubes were extruded.

They are claiming the 2 barrels are made of 1 piece of steel, no soldering or lump? I thought it was crazy but look?

Think I have seen Galand barrels made like this also. What the heck am I looking at?
Would they be more likely to change poi after being shot several times?

Ah, it would either be very expensive or a fantasy??? I think the Whitworth chopperlump would be the only possibility?

Here is a hammerless. Now it’s way out of my price range, but wow somebody was trying very hard on these guns!

It could be some H. Pieper Monobloc variation?
