Steel Receivers

How many repeater shotguns still have steel receivers, besides the Remington 870?

Euro and Japanese guns were mostly alloy decades back already.

Surprisingly, .22LR semi auto rifles for the most part have aluminum receivers, but it appears the only one made in America with a machined steel receiver, is the Savage 64.

  The Browning .22 may also have a steel receiver, but to  my knowledge that is made in Japan.
