I’m pretty sure Humperdinck’s got the answer:So what's the big deal? The 07/SOT converts the Glocks and registers them with NFA branch on form 2s as post samples. Jack.
Your average PP won't have the ambition or knowledge to convert Glocks to full auto. Why would they bother to try? Jack.I’m pretty sure Humperdinck’s got the answer:
“Brad Engelbert, an ATF spokesman, described the nationwide recovery effort as a "high priority" for the agency, focused on those devices in the possession of "people who may be a danger to the community."
Now I wouldn’t rule them out from going after the law abiding citizen but it seems they are most concerned with PP’s.
Good luck getting the LE letter for that.So what's the big deal? The 07/SOT converts the Glocks and registers them with NFA branch on form 2s as post samples. Jack.
The LE letter is needed to buy a post sample unless the dealer who has it is going out of business. The 07/SOT can make new NFA stuff and register it. Jack.Good luck getting the LE letter for that.
If you are not concerned about select fire, a simple replacement of the backplate with one having a probiscis to push down on the cruciform sear plate when the slide is fully closed will make a "full auto only" Glock that is externally indistinguishable from factory (if the backplate is nicely done). The term commonly used for these is "Buzz Plates", and I know that Glock staff has trained police on how to recognize them.Your average PP won't have the ambition or knowledge to convert Glocks to full auto. Why would they bother to try? Jack.
Thanks for the correction - much appreciated.The LE letter is needed to buy a post sample unless the dealer who has it is going out of business. The 07/SOT can make new NFA stuff and register it. Jack.

Yeah I’m serious. Like I said I won’t rule it out that they would go after a guy like you or me but they most likely will go after the multi-buyer, pp, thug, felon, basement manufacturer. Maybe I should say npc-schmoe instead of law abiding citizen since if they grabbed one they would no longer be law abiding but a defendant. Still, the chances of them using just electronic transactions with no physical evidence to prosecute would be null and void. No gun and no victim, no crime.Not sure if serious, they don't think anyone who has one is a law abiding citizen and they don't care much. As a matter of fact the ones most likely to cause problems like people who only break paper laws, because it means they're not going to get shot at in the process. It doesn't matter, either, that most of these will never get used in a crime or make any real difference
in a crime.
If the feds were more reasonable they'd just go after the importer(s) and then issue a notice that "people should be aware these devices are illegal blah blah blah" and let that be the end of
it. But instead, right now there's some agent who likely has a boner because he's trying to track down some guy who bought 5 of them at once.

Checked em out. Couldn’t find anything on Lara but I didn’t search NES. All military Leo folks though. Abramski and Olofson made big mistakes to involve others, ie. family members and friends. First the ffl family member and then the friend at the range. That being said I agree that it’s best to not run afoul by having illegal things in plain sight and during broad day. There are many tokens to be made by .gov for the brazen altar of gunzzz violence.Look up Abramski, David Olofson, Michael Lara... the last of which was a police officer. The ATF whacks boring people without prior criminal records in the course of their "business", it would not surprise me in the least if they hit some boring white guy whose only crime is being clueless about the law, and unless that guy sends someone down the river, they'll put him away for 1-3 yrs...

This guy didn't get the memo that the video he uploaded could probably be a reason for a knock on his door from men with blue jackets and yellow print on their back:
But this kid got his to work:
AbsolutelySo mere possession of full auto conversion parts, without having the rest parts of a gun is a crime?
