I've had a parts kit for an Israeli Fal for years sitting in my storage. If I recall correctly - it is a heavy barrel model with a front bipod. Recently, I heard about Mak-90's being made 922r compliant by changing out the FCG, gas piston, replacing the thumbhole stock - all with American made parts so that the total of imported parts is no more than 10 imported parts. Thus, making the Mak-90 a Ak-47 derivative and allowing the use of a pistol grip. The Mak-90 nolonger would have been considered an imported rifle - but now american made and legal to have changed out the thumbhole stock.
So, does this mean that when I go to assemble my Israeli Fal kit with it's new American made receiver - that I must also change out other Israeli made imported parts for me to have the original pistol grip, bipod, flash hider ...etc on this gun - legal?
Or, because the definition of a gun resides in the receiver - and since my receiver would be American made - that when I assemble this kit back to its glorified configuration - that I have made an American made gun already be the virtue of having it assembled with an American made receiver??
Lots of questions here. But- I am confident that one of you fine folks can help me with this. If I need to change out other Israeli parts, along with the receiver - who is my best source of american made Israeli Fal parts? - and what parts would I need to change out??
Thanks
