This is strictly theoretical, but I'm curious...

What would be the significance, if any, if someone received an M1icon carbine from the CMPicon and the receiver were marked as an M2?

I've been looking around on the web, and it seems as though any receiver that carries the M2 mark is considered a machine gun (if not already registered as such). And if the item were to come from a dubious source, I would understand.

However, would the CMP ship an M2-marked receiver to an individual? If so, what would the ramifications be? What recourse would there be?

I would appreciate any help that anyone could offer.

Again, just curious what would happen if this were to happen to someone.

Thanks for the help.
