Kozak is correct
As a class two manfacture I get asked this question all the time.
The fact is just a selector for an AR-15 is considereda machine gun by ATF
A drop in auto sear is a Machine gun. If you are going to fool with this 80% stuff just get an 07 FFL pay your $500 SOT and build all the goodies you like and stay out of jail. There is no gray area with ATF its cut and dried if you are sniffing around the edges you have intent to build and that is all they need to make you wish you had not.

have fun, shoot straight and be safe.
