You forgot sec 922r. Requiring foreign guns to have no more than 10 foreign parts. Which is still in effect.. AK's had H/T/S, hand guards, pistol grip, butt stock , gas piston, magazine base plate & follower.

FN's were using charging handles, furniture, gas piston , H/T/S , mag floor plate and follower.


922 parts mfg did very well back then. Of course those were the days of $100 FN - Herstal Belgium parts kits from FAC, Federal Arms Corp Now morphed / absorbed in to Tapco

Damn, the AWB was good for American Ingenuity. Pass a law we'll work around it, legally .
