Three parts for $20. Now you said cheap not good.... =)What are the cheapest 922r parts to get for a g3/91 build
There is open debate on how much 'work' has to be done to a foreign part to reclassify it as US made. IMO I would not chance it.If I had a picatinny rail welded on the receiver would that count as a 922r part.
Correct... short barreled or not. A rifle is a rifle and must be 922r compliant. The SBR stamp doesn't absolve you of the 922r regs. I haven't heard of anyone getting busted just for 922r, but do you want to take the chance of being the first?SBRs still need to be 922r compliant
pinned on flash hider is non-removable, so its not a muzzle attachment, it is part of the barrel, and therefore can not be counted as separate US part.For the G3K built on a clone receiver one starts at four, PTR receiver, RCM barrel, US extended pinned on flash hider (to get it home) and US charging handle tube, one could then make it five with a US charging handle.
I'd really like to know where this info is coming from.Correct... short barreled or not. A rifle is a rifle and must be 922r compliant. The SBR stamp doesn't absolve you of the 922r regs. I haven't heard of anyone getting busted just for 922r, but do you want to take the chance of being the first?
(a) Firearm
The term ''firearm'' means (1) a shotgun having a barrel or
barrels of less than 18 inches in length; (2) a weapon made from a
shotgun if such weapon as modified has an overall length of less
than 26 inches or a barrel or barrels of less than 18 inches in
length; (3) a rifle having a barrel or barrels of less than 16
inches in length; (4) a weapon made from a rifle if such weapon as
modified has an overall length of less than 26 inches or a barrel
or barrels of less than 16 inches in length; (5) any other weapon,
as defined in subsection (e); (6) a machinegun;
Here is 925 (d)(3):(r) It shall be unlawful for any person to assemble from imported parts any semiautomatic rifle or any shotgun which is identical to any rifle or shotgun prohibited from importation under section 925 (d)(3) of this chapter as not being particularly suitable for or readily adaptable to sporting purposes except that this subsection shall not apply to—
(1) the assembly of any such rifle or shotgun for sale or distribution by a licensed manufacturer to the United States or any department or agency thereof or to any State or any department, agency, or political subdivision thereof; or
(2) the assembly of any such rifle or shotgun for the purposes of testing or experimentation authorized by the Attorney General.
Note that an SBR DOES fall within the definition of a firearm, and is therefore NOT covered under 925(d)(3).(3) is of a type that does not fall within the definition of a firearm as defined in section 5845(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and is generally recognized as particularly suitable for or readily adaptable to sporting purposes, excluding surplus military firearms, except in any case where the Attorney General has not authorized the importation of the firearm pursuant to this paragraph, it shall be unlawful to import any frame, receiver, or barrel of such firearm which would be prohibited if assembled; or
Live and learn on the charging handle tube, was an interesting option when I found it on Adam's US parts page. In the case of the HK911, if it has a pinned on fake barrel extension and thumb hole stock, it is in the "non AW condition", one might think that having a pinned on muzzle brake was similar. In this case for a sear host, the muzzle brake is preferred over the flash hider.pinned on flash hider is non-removable, so its not a muzzle attachment, it is part of the barrel, and therefore can not be counted as separate US part.
I don't believe the "charging handle tube" is a countable part, just the handle itself.
the HK911 needed to have some of it's 'evil features' removed so it was importable. hence the non-pistol grip and non-threaded muzzle.In the case of the HK911, if it has a pinned on fake barrel extension and thumb hole stock, it is in the "non AW condition", one might think that having a pinned on muzzle brake was similar.
