If you know the actual spec I would not argue with you...but mil-specs are things that few people spend time reading as they aren’t generally entertaining.

No the spec itself would only specify the type of steel, not the source. The laws may require use of US components, but often, by necessity, those are waived. I say "by necessity" because often US made components are not available. It's as true of electronics as bullets, more true in fact.
