criminals have and use the switches, and we know darn well that if the switches are made illegal, law,abid8n people will of,course not buy them but the same criminals will still have them, and of course not turn them in- so the theory that making someth8ng illegal for law abiding citizens keeps people safe is just an asinine utopian unicorn dream by gullible “feel good” dolts who haven’t got a clue. They naively think that criminals will obey the law- the only thing it will do is drive the device makers underground, and make them a ton more money as the devices will be highly sought after from that point forward.

I look for those switches to become the new “Ghost Gun” arguments by the left as they zero in on,them as they try to villanize guns and those who have them.

The “switch” defeats the sear on a Glock. It causes a slam fire situation once the trigger is depressed. Think instant mag dump.

Its can be as dangerous to the user as the intended target. The muzzle jumps around but can be controled. Just watch some YT videos.
