922R compliance parts for a Home built MG42

[pharbor1941]

What are the 922 r compliance parts required for a homre built MG42. I will assume that a rewelded german receiver will not count towards the total parts requirement? Is a modified bolt a 922 R part?

covered and debated many times , tons of info here in the legalities section. Everyone has agreed the receiver is US made , I think most agree an SA bolt carrier is also US made.
Personally with all the changes needed to run SA i think it be hard to get enough foreign parts to worry about.

after a lot of talking to members here and a bunch of reading..

(ive been wrong before) it doesnt appear that there are enough foreign parts left in the gun from whats on the lists of parts that they look at.

did that make any sense at all?

[sdk1968]

ok now before people start beatin me to death here........ ive been reading till blood comes out of my eyes and going off of the lists that are on this site, my build is going to be under the parts count, or what the parts that count appear to be.

after all this reading im still not sure that any of this will ever be "concrete" as far as interpretation goes.

I can see by your final sentence that you HAVE read everything,and you DO understand it! Congratulations-some of us take a long time to figure out that it doesn't make any sense! Good luck with the build! ---bil

Bil,

thats very funny... in several ways!

1, cause my sentence structure sucked.

2, cause yep i did read everything in the legalities section

3, yep im still almost as confused as when i started

its all good and im charging blindly ahead.

I was mostly refering to #3-If you have read it all and are still confused,then you understand perfectly! I think it is designed that way,every time someone clears it up,it changes! Sort of like Alice in Wonderland.The same folks write the tax codes! ---bil

Let see if I understand this. As long as I'm confused it's perfectly alright, so go ahead and keep building on my SA42.

heres the problem as far as i see it

the atf has classifed the "brp" mg42 as a firearm
and "home builds" as a "assult rifle" (i think)--requiring the 922 compliance parts---
it has something to do with it being a shoulder fired or shoulder supported weapon---i think we will have to assemble them as though they were assult weapons

i dont know it all
i may be wrong
just my .02
