The 922r requirements are about making an "assault" rifle out of a gun that was imported as a "sporting purpose" firearm. They sell all the parts, and people are eager to make an AK47 looking, high capacity "assault" rifle from their stock SKS. Never made much sense to me. An SKS is fun to shoot just as it was made. I have two Yugos, a standard Chinese commercial, a "pararooper" Chinese.(still commercial), and an Albanian. All are just fine as they were built. If you want an AK47, buy and AK47.
