Hugh,

I am not sure if you know this or not, but those import marks are there for a reason; for the BATF to have a way of tracing these recently imported milsurps. Removing them

would be violating the law.(even though it is a silly law)

Furthermore, I think the Regs say these import marks are supposed to be placed on the frame. Kinda silly to put them on something that can be replaced.Like a barrel or gas cylinder(I've seen some Garands with the import mark on the gas cylinder). My 2 cents. Steve
