Are Glock’s the only pistol that can convert with an auto-sear?

I think Glocks are preferred because the conversion is simple with an easily available auto sear. Plus, the availability of drum and extended capacity stick magazines favor Glocks.

BUT... a Glock is not the ONLY semi-auto pistol that can convert.

So it’s Glock’s fault that people illegally convert illegally owned firearms into machine guns and use them in crimes?

It's always the gun's fault with these morons instead of their pro-criminal, anti-cop policies.

That’s why they hold them sideways, gangsta style. They don’t care who they hit or where the bullets go.

gas pedals without speed governors on automobiles allow irresponsible drivers without drivers licenses to routinely massively exceed the speed limits, resulting in the deaths large numbers of innocent people ... auto manufacturers need to be sued because these gas pedals allow automobiles to be driven far too fast for many conditions by people without driver licenses or insurance ...

All they have to do is declare it a gun free area and the problem will be solved. I don’t see what the big deal is.

Any right-thinking people living in Chicago, consider... this might be an excellent time to G**O before property prices crash like Detroit.

Kind of like when someone modifies their car with nitro and carbon fibre to make it faster and they kill someone while speeding. Chicago answer: Sue the MFG.

I'd laugh at the stupidity of the lawsuit but for the fact of seeing lawfare lately.
