Gangsters in American cities are increasingly "modifying their firearms to enable fully automatic fire, converting simple handguns into tiny machine guns," according to The Epoch Times.

Called a "switch," "chip," or auto sear, these illegal gun parts are being bought from China and can transform a standard semi-automatic Glock into a fully automatic weapon.

The simplicity of the device is pretty cool. If Bubba is more than 10 feet from you, the probability of hits is about zero.

A Glock 18 is a factory select-fire version of the Glock 17. I assume the selector operates in a similar way to a "switch." Hickok45 is a big man with large, strong hands and should be considered a professional. His results are atypical from a street thug.

Hickock45 is holding the gun 90 degrees off from street thug spec.

A full auto Glock is only a spray and pray weapon. Only someone who is practiced and trained with that weapon has any real control over it. Even then, expect a pattern the size of a platter half the time.

We have a plague of them here in the twin cities, and the latest was 4 retards being picked up with not only the autosears, but the dreaded “Ghost Guns” with no serial numbers. Which is funny to me since the slides or the barrels usually have a stamp with a number on it that is the same as the serial number.

That said, The BATF is likely going to call for either tax stamps for pistols from the law abiding, or an outright ban on handguns soon. They already got the pistol braces made illegal.

Again, the problem is the liberals/progressives. We have millions of gun laws on the books, but the DAs in blue cities have a pattern of dropping Committing a Felony with a Firearm type offenses in plea bargain arrangements because of some twisted Disparate Impact theology.

The criminals who are pleading out and not getting any time, tell other criminals, and then an increase of crime comes from no consequences. Nearly all of the gang violence in my area is committed by 16-19 year olds. All of whom are supposedly incapable of owning a handgun as you have to be 21 to do so here.

More gun crimes by out of control children means that the state will eventually cry out that we parents have failed and we must all sacrifice our rights for the lives of our children.

Which is the intended goal of all this.
