I assume you need to show an appropriate licence for the part you need but is any other permit or PTA or registration method needed? I am personally only worried about a magazine in particular as that is what I need but while I am asking the question I may as well include all parts such as bolts, triggers, stocks, whatever into the conversation. Thanks.
Magazines are fine, but to import them you require a B709 import permit.

Stocks are fine as long as they are not length-adjustable, otherwise you need a B709 and genuine reason.
Only the action is a licenced part, though some states require PtA's for barrels as well.
