Unobtanium Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Does anyone make a replacement USA made P/N 083J rubber pistol grip? No, and it wouldn't matter if they did if you are looking at parts-count for 922r compliance. It is just a slip-on covering. You can buy the OEM one from Brownells if you want.

m4_fan Posted November 28, 2009 Author Share Posted November 28, 2009 Yes, I'm looking for a way to meet the 922r, plan "B" is to make my own gas pistons and hammer. The pistons (269J) won't be too difficult, but the hammer (002J) metallurgy and heat treat will be more effort. 1. Receiver 2. Barrel 3. Bolt 4. Bolt carrier 5. Gas piston 1*********************1 6. Gas piston 2***********************2 7. Trigger housing 8. Trigger 9. Hammer*******************************3 10. Disconnector 11. Buttstock 12. Pistol grip **possible??? 13. Handguard 14. Magazine body/Tube************************4 15. Follower******************************5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hookster Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Hi M4 According to all recent BATFE response letters received by forum members, they consider the M4 (with pistol grip buttstock) to be comprised of 13 parts not 15. Quickest route: #1 US made FL tube #2 US made follower #3 US made forend Are you trying to get compliant while retaining a collapsible stock?

m4_fan Posted November 28, 2009 Author Share Posted November 28, 2009 Standard fixed stock. I want to customize my M4 w/ a non-USA made forend (Brugger & Thomet). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hookster Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Standard fixed stock. I want to customize my M4 w/ a non-USA made forend (Brugger & Thomet). Mesa Tactical's PG stock should be out in a couple months. That would let you use the B&T and still be ok. There's a picture of the stock in post #34 on this page: http://www.mesatactical.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=722&p=2 Hookster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerDanger Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Making pistons is harder than it seems. Finding the proper heat treatment is the key. Too hard and they snap. Too soft and they deform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
