No, because the H&K MR223 uses different pin positions than a standard AR in order to prevent them being placed on "military" lowers (It is a legal requirement of the German government). The MR556A1 we got here in the States on the other hand uses standard pins and as such can be placed on regular lowers. Additionally, American ITAR would disallow him from importing a Colt upper unless it was a Colt Canada upper and even then I don't know what Canada's export laws are when it comes to weapon parts.
