Don't know about current production, but at one time the only UAE-sourced component was the pistol grip.
Update, not much of one...ran 250 thru her in October in 60 degree weather. All rounds were steel and the 'harsh' setting was used, function was flawless. Ran 250 of XM193, 16 degrees, this last Saturday with perfect function. Light recoil and accurate. Will continue to update as I go along...have another carbine I run on the reg so...
EDIT : I'm running a Spikes T2 powder buffer rather than the H3 factory powder buffer. I do this simply because I absolutely will shoot garbage ammo thru this setup.

Another 225...IMI M193 in 19 degree temp. 725 rounds thus far. Have used the harsh setting with Wolf and reloads in low temp, 100% reliable. Standard setting with the full power 5.56, she runs and a soft shooter.
My RDS did fail dramatically, irons saved the day.
Well to be fair IMI ammo is known for being a little on the "spicy" side. I was playing with different buffer weights on a carbine of mine once and used several different loads (all 5.56, no .223). The ONLY round that functioned 100%, regardless of the buffer, was IMI 77gr Razor ammo. Of course once I got the buffer weight right they all worked but I found that interesting.

F**k China!
Oh, no doubt, it’s great ammo.
Another hundo today - 825 total. Standard gas setting @ 25 degrees. Doing a fresh zero on some new SD ammo, 50 grain TSX - same zero as IMI and PMC, confirmed it. No issues.
