There is no minimum for ITAR Export restrictions for the US, however Brownells just has the $100 threshold, which many places follow; ITAR, CFR, USML, DOS-DTAC do not ever list a threshold (if you have any documentation on this from a -government- site, please PM me, oh god that would make my life easier).
Technically anything firearms related falls under USML, but so do Anti-gravity suits (listed seperately from aircraft G-suits) and plasma weapons, but that's legislation for you.
But, as to the OP's question, I agree that this is BS. There ~isn't import restrictions on firearms parts (I found out there are restrictions, but even my CBSA contacts didn't know about them and didn't enforce them; they just enforce 'firearms' (i.e. serialized recievers); I couldn't find anything refuteing the import requirements though). And, if anything is seized, you're supposed to be notified of that fact.
