(2,717 posts)atheist: you have no idea what you are talking about. You cannot add metal components that are missing, with a file.
You obviously aren't up to speed on this: But if you get one of these so-called "conversion kits" and so much as run a file across the metal piece that renders the gun full-auto, guess what? You've just made yourself into an instant felon by.. https://www.quora.com/Is-it-against-the-law-to-modify-a-firearm-into-a-full-auto-machine-gun-without-a-special-license-like-class-III
ha, they even have a book on it for sale on amazon: Full Auto, Volume 1: AR-15 Modification Manual Paperback March 1, 2013 The purpose of this small book is to clarify and explain the procedure and parts needed to convert a semi-automatic ar-15 assault rifle to be a selectable, full automatic weapon. Needless to say the actual conversion would be in violation of federal and various state and municipal laws and the reader is so warned. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0879470615/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0879470615&linkCode=as2&tag=seamchll-20&linkId=RXYZ5DROALQN3ZLJ

atheist: Challenge rejected on the basis no one claimed that except you.
I challenged based upon tupper's poor wording of a sentence, & qualified my question by first asking what he was talking about: tupper: The AR-15 is functionally no different from any other semi-automatic rifle that accepts a detachable magazine. There are literally 10s of millions of this kind of rifle, owned by, again, literally 10s of millions of law-abiding citizens,..
jimmy reply #3, asking what he was referring to: Are you saying that 10's of millions of AR15s are owned by americans? are you trying to say about 20 million and going hyper? ...
I challenge on this basis that 10's of millions of americans own an ar15, pls provide a source..
I challenged on the basis of his uncertain wording, sloppy & ambiguous, and clearly qualified my challenge tentatively on 'this basis', being his referring to the AR15, which it seemed he was.
See my reply #42, where even straw man conceded tupper's wording left his references 'in doubt'.
Then go soak your head.
atheist: Lever-action center fire rifles are #1, semi-autos like the AR are #2, so not even close to 90%. You are WAAAAY off.
So what would you peg the percentage at?
