Barrel stamp identification

[RidingHood]

Hey everyone,
I've got a barrel here that's stamped 308win DRS. I'm wondering if anyone knows whos barrel this is. Thanks

You may want to PM guntech on that one. I think he might be able to help.

DRS may be guntech as the gunsmith that chambered it and put it together. The only way to know barrel maker is from whoever got the work done or if Dennis can recall.

I have stamped DRS on probably a couple thousand barrels I have threaded, chambered and fitted since 1966 when I barreled my first rifle... usually a 1/2 inch space or more between the caliber and the DRS.

I do not keep any records of those barrels.

no way to positively identify the maker of a barrel once the end stamp has been cut off. I can can give you a few good hunches if the barrel is crooked, uneven and short lapped.
