yesterday.

[These small "Lego" sized devices can turn
an ordinary Glock handgun into a fully
automatic weapon.

The modified weapon as per Forbes
can "spray dozens of bullets in seconds,
far faster than even typical
military-issued firearms."

According to the US ATF,
these switches, whether attached to
handguns or not, are illegal as they
are "classified as a machine gun
under federal law". Under federal law
in the United States, machine guns
manufactured after 1986 are prohibited
for civilian ownership.
The Firearm Owners' Protection Act
of 1986 (FOPA) imposed restrictions
on the transfer and possession of
fully automatic firearms,
commonly referred to as machine guns.]

What's the point? A Glock will fire as fast as you can pull the trigger. Firing a handgun on automatic would need the strength of Dwayne Johnson to keep it down and stop half the shots ending up in the ceiling. I mean, is a Glock not deadly enough already?

One adapter is made in Austria

Others are printed in homes
on 3-D printers

The one that basically converts an AR-15 into an M4 is especially dangerous, in terms of mass shootings etc.

This Glock one seems a bit like a "novelty item" for rednecks to whoop at when they're out shooting bottles and whatever?

I would get a SIG SAUER 226. Small, light, durable, accurate and easy to conceal.



$1200

Pff, you can get a 90 year old revolver with two dodgy home made bullets in Glasgow for about £60.
