abcNEWS reports that Bar-Sto Precision Machine Co. plans a new facility in Sturgis, SD to manufacture gun barrels.  The new plant is expected to create or save 30 new positions in Sturgis.

Company background from the Bar-Sto Home Page:

Bar-Sto Precision Machine has been making the finest auto-pistol barrels since 1971. Bar-Sto barrels have been used by the U.S. Marine Corps Marksman Unit since 1977. The AMU uses them also. They have also been used to win every major pistol tournament worldwide, including Camp Perry, the U.S.P.S.A. Nationals, Steel Challenge, the Masters, and many more.

All Bar-Sto Pistol barrels are machined from solid stainless steel bar stock which has been heat treated 39 to 43 RC and 180,000 PSI tensile strength. Barrels are machined, bored, and rifled completely in our own shop. All barrels have a rate of twist of 1 turn in 16″.
