Buddy all you need to turn a semi-automatic firearm into an automatic firearm is $0.10 of steel and a little machining knowledge

I have a CNC machine and it's probably the most requested part from strangers when I tell them. The amount of people out there actively looking to turn their AR15 into a M4 is disturbing.

Right that's what I learned. In the context of this particular case, I was asking if some Glock models are just easier to modify. If it's any semiautomatic fun then the lawsuit is dumb.
