Depending on the Caliber....
Anschutz.. mainly
LW for the less popular calibers....  .20 and .25
Toward the end they more LW...basically what was easily obtainable at the time of production.

Hi its a 177 cal cheers the rifle looks mint

If its a 2011 MFR, almost certainly an LW, early adverts showed the Anschutz logo and 2005 onwards only stated  'match grade German barrel'.

Easy way to tell is the rifling if you can see it at the breech.
Inserting a pellet in to the waist and pulling it back out again should be enough to confirm which one has been used.

Square cut lands LW
narrow lands 'gear' cut like half an inverted 'V' Ashcutz
