    Maybe it's dumb question I dunno
    It's a very logical question and the answer is...it would cost far too much money. Because they would need to be milled from a solid block of steel the tooling costs would be very high. They then need to be heat treated, engraved, have barrels installed and then be Cerakoted. Total cost for a Canadian company to make them....a lot more than you would want to pay.

    actually,,the reciever is a very easy piece to machine,,,i showed one to a machinist friend of mine and he laughed,,he say anyone of the CNC mills he works own would pound these out easily,,,even some of the cheaper home type CNC equipment could do it,,,we're spending near a grand on a 858 when we could get them,,i dont see how a canada company can't make one,,

    I heard Ohio does a good job too.
