I thought (and please correct me if I'm wrong) that possession of any auto parts and a SA would constitute possession of a FA. I'm not trying to scare the crap out of anybody - I thought that was the ATF's position (?).

They change their position like the weather.

Don't want to get caught in that storm!
A bolt carrier group is not a fire control component...

Then why does the NFA Fact book as published by BAFTE state not to use M-16 carriers, unless they have been modified to SP1 configuration then? Yeah, the part I highlighted.
Like I said, maybe someone other than yourself can clarify this for me.
BTW very authoritative cite for fire control components.

Because the NFA fact book actually isn't a fact, it's the opinion of the technical branch at any given time, in your case in the distant past. The use of the heavy bolt carrier predominates the industry at this time.
A ruling from the chief of the BATFE technical branch is as good as gold in this case. You're simply, well, wrong.
Yes, but the ruling it refers to was made in the distant past.

The fact that all the manufactures ship rifles with M-16 carriers doesn't answer the question about the paragraphs I highlighted. If you were a subject matter expert, it seems like it would be an easy home run to convince a booger eating toothless keyboard imbecile like myself that I'm all fuxored.
I don't doubt the letter you posted. I just don't understand why one side of the bureaucracy says one thing and the other says something different. Your broken record response about carriers not being part of the FCG failed to come even remotely close to answering that question.
