Are the 858's bulit on a converted full auto receiver, or on a semi auto only? I'd like to take it down to the US and want to know if it will be allowed in the country. Any ideas?

Thanks, CZ Man
 
It is considered unimportable simply because it accepts high capacity military magazines. The only receivers legally importable to u.s. are single stack then widened to accept factory mags after importation.

858's are semi auto only though.

According to the story, they are not CA's because they are built on receivers that were never assembled into select-fire rifles. Who knows, maybe some of them are new-build these days.

That import restriction applies to permanent importation.

I don't think that it precludes the temporary importation (by the non-immigrant alien) under a Form 6NIA.
