Barrels by Rayl, Getz, or Colerain

Will barrels by these quality makers have identifying markings on them? Are any of them still working? Thanks.

Getz signed his “Getz Beaverton PA. Cal and twist”.
Don Getz passed a number of years ago, son tried to make a go of it.
I have no experience with the others.
Rice Barrels mark theirs similar to Getz with the important info, and when made for Chambers, adds the model for parts set, ie Fowler, Virginia, etc.

Just built a 40cal (the avatar) has a colerain barrel with radius bottom rifling and it's a shooter. Got it from Log Cabin and they do have ID on the bottom of barrel.

I have a rifle with an Ed Rayl barrel and his name is stamped on an upper flat of the barrel. It’s an accurate rifle for sure!

Colerain is still in business. Great barrels. Rayl I dont know about. I have tried to get a barrel from him an have never been able to get him by phone. Getz is run by John an I hear you can only get a barrel from him if your lucky. Ive got an really like Burton barrels but im told he would rather ride his harley than make barrels. Im just glad I got mine yrs ago. Rice is excellent an cranking out barrels pretty well on time. Bobby Hoyt makes darn fine barrels. He is cranking them out pretty good an gets them out on time. I have 3 Hoyts an all were on time delivery. Thats about all i can tell you. Hope it helps

You know, still in business. Just wonderin' as I have possibility of getting a M1776 rifle and wondered where Rifle Shoppe sourced barrels. It's an older one assembled back in the Bi-Cen days.
