(give it a scout rifle /socom 16 kinda look) Normally - and the number can vary - you need a minimum number of US parts on your gun to be 922r compliant. I am sending a PM with a link to a 922r parts compliance table. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

However, if you're determined to go this route, you can obtain compliance by using U.S.-made magazines (Tapco, Surefire, or ProMag) exclusively, and by changing the handguard to a U.S. made one. That will get you four compliance parts, dropping you to 10 imported parts. Edited June 16, 2010 by Jim Digriz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
