suppose a person built a romy G with 6 compliance parts including the wood furniture. would it be legal for him to remove the butstock and replace it with a romanian wire sidefolder ??

Maybe I'm dumb, but are you saying the wood furniture is the original imported stuff or something US made?  If it counts towards US parts then no.  Throw in a piston (if not already) and then you're good.

Count the number of imported parts out of the following list. Per ATF regs the rifle cannot have more than ten as imported parts.

1. receiver
2. barrel
3. muzzle attachment
4. gas piston
5. front trunion (only countable for a stamped receiver assembly)
6. bolt carrier
7. bolt
8. hammer
9. trigger
10. disconnector
11. buttstock
12. pistol grip
13. handguard set
14. magazine body
15. magazine follower
16. magazine floorplate.

So, basically if you have 6 compliance parts and only 10 imported parts total, it does not matter if it folds or not ?  the original wood is imported as would be the wire folder.
but even with the wirefolder on, the part count would remain the same.

you built the G right,you have six 922r comp.parts,your wood,(stock) is either US made or the original stock ? .if your stock is US made and part of the "six" compliance parts then no you cannot switch to a folder unless it is a US made part or you add a US part somewhere else.you could just use US made mag floor plates and followers and do what ya want.you have a G2 FCG,correct? that is 3 parts,a receiver,1 part,piston? 1 part,pistol grip?1 part,muzzle break? 1 part.different things ya can do to add that folder.

So, lets say standard G build with the following compliance parts
receiver
slant brake
trigger
hammer
disconnector
pistol grip

that is 6 parts.  wood is original G. could the wirefolder be added without adding to the non compliance parts count ?  the original buttstock is foreign manufacture as is the wirefolder.  Thanks for your patience and advice

Bottom line is you cant have more than 10 imported parts from the list, on the gun. Just make sure the side folder is legal in your state( local state law) its not in mine. it will count as 1 imported part.

Thanks guys, I appreciate it. more than that I just wanted to say that is great that a community of people who have like interest help each other so freely.  I warms my heart.  maybe one day the sun of freedom will shine on us so that we can enjoy doing what we want without having to worry if the iron content in that part is either foreign or domestic.  Thanks again and build on my friends !!!!!!
