What are the U.S. made parts used on the PTR-G.I. rifles??

Hi, I'm planning on picking up one of those PTR-G.I. rifles within the next 2-3 months and I was wondering what are the U.S. made parts used to make these rifles. Also, what is the "total count" of U.S. made parts used in these builds since I want to use a metal trigger housing unit in place of the plastic one it comes with.

Thanks for looking and for any advice!!

I believe the Receiver, hammer, trigger, sear, grip frame, trigger housing, barrel, and cocking handle. Maybe the flash suppressor as well. Per their website: PTR maintains a minimum of 7 U.S. parts in all products. Many of the parts in your PTR are manufactured by PTR, if not all. However the US parts count in PTR’s products can vary. Most H&K and G3 parts are interchangeable with PTR’s design and because of this we recommend consulting our staff prior to switching any parts on your rifle.

You forgot the one part which is constant in every JLD/PTR gun. The receiver. GARY N4KVE
I believe most of their trunions are now US made.

My last PTR gun had no marking on the BCG to indicate a H&K or POF source, so I am suspecting that was also a US part.

Excellent point. Staring me right in the face.
