i cannot believe they have not returned the property to it's rightful owner yet.

anybody who knows anything about firearms should be able to tell in about 3 seconds if they are real guns or not.

to come out later and say that in fact these airsoft guns can easily be modified into fully automatic firearms is beyond silly.

it is all rediculas!! the only usable part is the lower, and the cost and the machining required would make the conversian way more expencive than getting the real thing.
the only advantage is getting an unnumbered frame.
so what would be the point?

they should confiscate aluminum stock.. a machinist could machine a REAL lower out of 2 dollars worth of that,,

maybe the batfe should confiscate machinists? :what:
