Pretty sure if something is cast Ruger is gonna do the casting:

I think they even make golf clubs for Ping.
And they just cast the plunger tube as part of the frame.
Since we’ve done an admirable job of spending RJ’s money and shoving him down the 1911 rabbit hole I might need you guys to lure me down the compensated long slide path.
Has anyone ever heard of Pistolcraft (maybe Pistol Craft?) or a Hammer & Slide Master-Comp?

I am also contemplating that as a next rabbit hole, but with M&P. Seems like there are options for threaded barrels now, and for the 1911 there are some options that replace the bushing. I have also wondered about getting a comp machined into a bull barrel, like getting a 6" bull barrel for my 5" 9mm Ruger (ETA: In 38 Super) and cutting a comp into the end of it...

I'd be more inclined to believe that payment might be due prior to commencing work, but consumed while doing the work. What's even funnier, is that it probably works.
From the looks of it, it looks like all you need is a fairly steady hand and a circular saw and you'd be in business.
