Bill,

I have a 1995 SAI rifle with a barrel marked TRW 7790190 4 63 BH. I also have a TRW bolt to go with it. It is a chrome lined barrel.

SAI said that this rifle was a standard rifle. Is there anything about the TRW barrel that makes it more, other than the fact that it is a TRW.

thanks in advance.

TRW parts are more desired on the market due to the methods of production.

Bill,

does the info on the barrel tell anything about when it was made and quality (i.e., standard, match)?

thanks

It is thought and I believe I have read somewhere that TRW barrels are thought to be somewhat more accurate due to the manufacturing methods and tolerances. I have a rifle that is all TRW and have never done any A-B compairsons. However, I can say from past experences from assembling other parts sets that TRW have been for me the easiest to assemble as compaired to other parts sets.
