It almost looks like you could switch out the airsoft upper for a real upper and have a functioning firearm. Except that there is an electric motor in the lower, to power the pellets, and they have no hammer other mechanism for setting off a live round.
So no, it wouldn't work.

I didn't see any motor in the drawing I posted
above and the rifle is CO
2-powered, not electric, so...

It might work, just not quite that way.
Having just built up 3 ARs, I’m guessing BATFE’s concern is someone taking the fire control parts out of the toy and putting them in a real AR.
I’m somewhat familiar with what M-16 internals look like, and the toy’s internals look more like those than they do an AR. Wish I had a Bushmaster catalog with me - I could verify it.
