Modifying your semi auto to auto. Would you actually do it?

MrBigglesworth · April 8, 2000, 12:47 AM

Hi all. My first post here.

As a recent Glock 22 owner I was checking out some websites related to Glock on Yahoo the other day and stumbled upon this site.
http://www.fullautoglock.com and it shows a video demo of how they modified a Glock to be full auto and spending an entire clip as if was an Uzi or something. Anyone here actually done any modifications like this? Im not going to. I have my Glock for self home defense and shooting at the range now and then. Anyone know a reason other than to "check it out" would actually do this? Also modifications such as this are totally illegal right?

You betcha it's illegal in the U.S.A. Unless the full-auto modification was for law enforcement, military or export, the "wrongdoer" is looking at Club Fed.

Now, if we were in a different country where it was permitted, that's another matter altogether.

Sorry, there's no country where this is legal (for the average shmoe).

Whether or not its doable, it is illegal. TFL does not promote illegal activities. Nor are the members so insecure in their maleness to publically discuss personal apparatus.

No one with half a brain would post about doing it...capishe?
