Videos tagged with Fully Automatic Conversion

This video discusses a new California law that makes handguns with a 'crucifix trigger system' illegal, which includes all Glocks and similar striker-fired firearms. The speaker argues the law's justification, based on the ease of converting these firearms to fully automatic using aftermarket parts like 'Glock switches,' sets a dangerous precedent. This precedent criminalizes possession based on the *potential* to break the law, rather than actual criminal acts, raising concerns about future restrictions on other items.

This video discusses California Bill 1127 and similar legislation, arguing they are an attempt to ban specific firearm brands, particularly Glocks. The speaker questions the necessity of such bills, citing existing federal laws that already prohibit firearm modifications for automatic fire and carry severe penalties. The core argument is that these legislative efforts lack intelligence and are primarily driven by a desire to remove certain firearms from circulation.

The video discusses proposed legislation in California aiming to ban all Glock firearms, citing their potential for conversion to fully automatic via aftermarket 'Glock switches.' The speaker argues this is a dangerous precedent, as most semi-automatic firearms can theoretically be converted, and this law could be expanded. The legislation's initial broad scope and subsequent narrowing to specifically target Glocks are detailed, with concerns raised about its potential to be amended to ban other firearms in the future. The speaker urges proactive engagement and education within the gun community and with the public to counter such legislation.

This video discusses the conviction of CRS Firearms for allegedly facilitating illegal firearm modifications.

The conviction highlights concerns about government overreach and the suppression of information related to firearm capabilities.

It highlights the firearm's compatibility with MP5 magazines, its 9mm caliber, threaded barrel, and a stated muzzle velocity of 1100 feet per second with a 115-grain bullet. The speaker, who recently obtained a Class 7/07 Special Occupational Taxpayer license for manufacturing machine guns, discusses the potential for converting these PTR 9mm firearms to fully automatic for sale to law enforcement or licensed dealers, and plans to rent them out.
