No sir, they are still machined from barstock. I'm sure not afraid if a quality cast receiver though.


Butch,
I realize they're still machined from barstock. Contact them and ask if they ever tried casting with 'F' serial numbers.


Not doubting you but curious why they would as it seems it would be more expensive than machining round stock to get a cylindrical receIver?
