the so-called Damascus steel look


Ya' know, I can't remember ever seeing a true Damascus Steel rifle action, though I have seen some mouth watering accoutrements in that form,....usually WAY out in the higher $$$ realm.

You here to discuss RIFLE ACTIONS, or sell knives ?

Would really like to drift back towards the subject at hand.

I've read some WEIRD text regarding Pine Tree castings using 30-40 % "scrap".

When an extremely well equipped team of Metalurgists choose to dope their crucibles with ALREADY certified, Mil-specced "scrap", I say let them run. Torsion bars offa' tanks, barrels and breechblocks, Rockwell Eaton Gears, Landing gear components off Davis Monthan...etc
....can't get to awful offended by the addition of such "scrap", me.
