ITAR You can't sell controlled defense articles to foreigners [or export them] without state department approval. That upper would be considered controlled for ITAR purposes. |

I'm with you on the export part but selling a non-controlled item seems OK. Correct me if I'm wrong. You are wrong. That the item is not controlled as a firearm under the GCA does not mean it is not controlled by laws and regulations on the export of arms as a firearm part. |

ITAR is different from GCA, I would read up on it. Most night vision and I think even optics like an Aimpoint(I might be wrong about aimpoints) are covered. ITAR is pretty convoluted. I would read up on it,

An answer like that would send you to Federal Prison. By purchasing an upper and bringing it across the border he is breaking ITAR. EVEN A STOCK OR SPENT .22LR CASING will put you in Fed Prison if you bring it across the border (according to ITAR). |

There is a value floor below which parts are not regulated under export regulations. However, an upper is above it by my recollection. |

Major components (eg. barrels, receivers, frames, cylinders, the like) are always regulated. |
