Racist Darrell Brooks didn't need a "machine gun" to kill 6 people and injure over 60 more with his car at the Christmas parade massacre in Wisconsin. All he needed was the Dims' race war propaganda to motivate him enough to find any means necessary to do what he wanted to do.
Ban assault Democrats now!

Devices? It’s a simple switch of the sear, a literal drop in. I saw an Ingram Mac 10 go full auto at a arsonal sponsored demo once, the “device” was a piece of bent coat hanger.

The earsplitting, heart-stopping roar of fully automatic weapons The author writes like an underweight, skinny-jeans wearing, limpwristed faggot. I bet he has never heard automatic weapons fire.

My local gun range has an automatic weapon for rent. It sort of looks like a machine gun but I’m not sure what model it is. Mostly tourists rent it. I was in there one day when a family from Md was enjoying some range time with it. Zip..zip 50 rounds down range in a few seconds. They were giggling. All I could think of is much money they were spraying around.

A lot came from China.
Buddy manages a gun store, and had multiple people try to sell glocks with them on.

Yep, full-auto instead of burst control is a quick way to run out of ammo and still have bad guys targeting you.

Modern organized crime and illicit drugs....as it was in the ‘30s, with bootleg liquor and the Mob.

You don’t even have to swap out anything. Read post #10 between the lines.

Oh yeah. Don’t concern yourself with the 100,000+/- ODs per year.

There have always been work-arounds to make illegal machine guns. The ATF once designated a shoe string a machine gun.
But machine guns are still illegal without the proper paperwork: ten years in prison and $250,000 fine.
Think about that.
To: curious7
>>a quick way to run out of ammo
So basically a conversion to single-shot?
Aim for the bad guy’s right foot?
To: Twotone
"He said prosecutors who have reduced prosecutions for gun possession in urban areas should make exceptions for guns with switches attached." So, they admit that they are not prosecuting criminals for crimes committed with a gun, then, they're surprised that those same criminals commit more crimes with guns.🤔
A few months ago, police in Chicago picked up 5 "teens",15-16 years old, all carrying Glocks with switches.
None were prosecuted, but turned over to their parent(s) or guardians.
Much safer for the feds to go after a law abiding gun owner that legally purchased a solvent trap, 80% reveiver or a brace.

it is not even fully automatic. It is more like slam fire. Once you pull the trigger, it will slam fire into the magazine is empty. Easing the trigger will not stop the slide.
