Wow, what a piece of garbage!
"It's not very difficult to alter a semiautomatic firearm to fire as a fully automatic," said ATF special agent Walter Kudron.
If this Walter Kudron knows of a semi-auto that can easily be converted to fire fully automatically, then clearly he's not doing his job.

Of course, just need to have a machine shop and you're all set. And the parts are apparently widely available, too, except that parts intended to construct a machine gun also count as machine guns themselves.

Yep, I saw that on Law and Order. It apparently takes 5 minutes for an untrained person to do this modification.

Actually... with an AR it is that easy...
sweet baby jesus, this Kudron guy is a complete imbecile, and the sad fact is that mass hysteria will listen to idiots like this guy that guns can "easily be converted"......idiots.\
I admit I bought 2 guns from outside NY state in recent months, however I am still pissed at the fact they had to keep the magazines, 10 or less, FUNY

Make pistols absurdly hard to get in NYS.
People go elsewhere to get them.
You don't say?

These may or may not be files on my laptop that I may or may not have gotten from online. Just for someones own curiosity of how guns work of course.

Yeah. Just need to file down the shelf in the lower to accept a full-auto FCG, which I assume you're going to file out of a block of steel, then file the third pin hole. But if you file it a little off, it'll either not trip the sear to fire the next round or trip it too early and you'll have made yourself a pile of bent parts.

I'm not going to get into how to do it, but it's MUCH easier than that. The gun will never go back to semi without new parts, but a grinder and about 30 seconds nets you a fully auto AR.
Anyone with a decent understanding of the AR trigger group will be able to figure it out.

I'd like to think I have a pretty good understanding of the FCG in an AR. I mean, one easy thing to do, don't even need to grind anything, is to just take the disconnector out, the hammer will follow the bolt right home. Seems like the easiest possible way, short of the fact that it won't work. From there, grinding the disconnector down can cause the gun to fire on both trigger pull and release, but the BATFE has actually approved that. Then there's the old story about how someone's uncle/grandpa/whoever filed the firing pins off of their squads M1 Carbines to make them full auto. Anyone familiar with the basic functions of a firearm know that that would make them not fire.
1. All my guns are legal.
2. The last time I checked simply knowing how to do something wasn't a crime.
3. ????
4. Profit
