25-year-old man from Minneapolis has been federally charged for being in possession of and manufacturing auto sears, devices that are used to convert a semi-automatic firearm into a machine gun.

The U.S. Attorney for Minnesota, Andrew Luger, says that Aaron Malik Cato had four 3D printers at his residence and was in possession of several 3D-printed auto sears.

DieHard batteries are available at Walmart... and many other stores.

Yeah, sure, now they are. Back in the day they were a Sears exclusive.

Will an M16 Fire Control Group fit in an AR-15 receiver without additional machining?
