I posted a partial picture of these DW .41 Mag barrels with my last post. The two at the top of the picture are marked as shown. The bottom barrel has no markings on it. The top barrel has never been on a gun, the bottom two have seen use, but the bores are in very good shape. My question is; Can anyone shed some light on where these barrels were more than likely made?

 Thanks in advance! Proud To Be An American

They made optional barrels with different twist rates, for different weights & types of bullets. One of these other guys can explain it better, so hang tight for a better answer than mine.Wink

The bottom one with no markings should be the original, but I forget which twist rate that is.

The only barrels I've seen with the twist rate marked on them were from Norwich. The unmarked one could either be Monson or Palmer.
