    All US 922r compliant components - even the small bits, are clearly marked "MADE IN USAicon". They do not have faux markings, and are usually stamped with something to the effect of "922r COMPLIANT" as well as a maker's indentity.

    I have seen US rifles marked up to replicate the number on the TMH before Paul (by the owner I would assume).

    To be fair, you cant really see what other markings are present, something is stamped ahead of the magwell.

    Easy way to tell...does it have an auto sear fitted, if it does, then its got to be Military in origin...if not then a Civvy.

    I might ask the vendor to have a peek, as the carrier is welded solid he would need to pop out the pivot and see if its sear cut.
