This guide outlines the three primary stages for constructing a semi-automatic variant of a machine gun. It emphasizes the critical legal distinction in the US: once a firearm is legally classified as a machine gun, its receiver cannot be converted back to semi-automatic. The process involves creating a new, specifically semi-automatic receiver and modifying internal components, rather than directly 'converting' an existing machine gun.

This guide details the assembly and range testing of the 'Big MAC', a 3D-printed MAC-10 variant chambered in .45 ACP.
