I just read up on this subject in relation to my ar15. There are auto parts that can improve the function of a semi gun. Technically I could put an full auto BCG in my AR and not go to jail. The problem is if the feds want to confiscate my gun for testing they can. They can also test it any way and as much as they want. If during that time it double taps after a few thousand rounds, which happens, I would be screwed. That is regardless of whether it was a malfunction unrelated to the BCG.

So it is not illegal to own individual auto parts. But, if you own a receiver and a parts kit it is treated as intent and subject to jail time. Do not own a receiver and auto parts kit!
