Oh, I'm aware of that. By the looks of it, I can keep it to 9 Foreign parts, and I will have 7 US made parts. I guess I'll be legal, atleast I think so. Anyone want to clarify?

You'll have one more US part than you need if you use both a follower and plate in each mag.

You are probably right, but I wouldn't want to be the guy who they made an example of, and oneday they will decide to make an example out of someone. As far as adding the US brake, that is kosher, adding the floor plate and follower will also more than make up for the grip, just make sure you remember which mags have the US parts. |

Last year a local was pulled over for speeding on his way to a plate shoot. Officer (of many years and not a rookie as it turned out) saw gun cases in the back of his truck, checked them out, put him in cuffs for 'machine guns'. Other officers were called into the scene on the roadside, even from other depts sharing the interstate. They said that they had the same ARs and AKs, which were fully legal. First officer would not budge, kept him cuffed for about 7 hours, seized the guns. When the local started pushing back thru the system, the guns were 'lost' from the evidence room in order to cover the ass of the police. Simply a good thing that there was NOTHING wrong with his guns. US parts are cheap and easy, even if the need is usually dumb. |

Very true BUT.......... Many "U.S. Made" compliance parts out there are not considered US made according to the "other" govt. agency that regulates such things. The U.S. Dept of Commerce has very strict criteria on what can be sold and considered as "made in the USA" and many parts people are buying to be "legal" do not qualify. Am I saying people should ignore 922(R)? No. Just be aware that the law is unenforcable as written and many of you out there who are assuming you have a "compliant" gun really don't. |

Rick, that is two days in a row you have shown me the light on subjects I thought I was somewhat educated on, thanks again. Of course I would never intentionally violate the law, but that info does put things in a completly different light.

Great, thanks for the heads up on everything. So I'll actually be having 9 Imported parts, and I'll be +1(heh) in US parts, in other words, I'll have a spare part that I don't really need. Yeah, mag followers and floorplates are dirt cheap. I have 20 AK mags, so for 10 bucks I can replace each mag. No big deal. Many thanks!
